Urbanization with Chinese Characteristics: The Hukou System and Migration

Many agree that rapid urbanization in China in the late 20th and early 21st centuries is a mega process significantly reshaping China and the global economy. Chinaâs urbanization also carries a certain mystique which has long fascinated generations of scholars and journalists alike. As it has turned out many of the asserted Chinese feats are mostly fancied claims or gross misinterpretations (of statistics for example). There does exist however an urbanization that displays rather uncommon Chinese characteristics that remain to inadequately understood. Building on his three decades of careful research Professor Kam Wing Chan expertly dissects the complexity of Chinaâs hukou system migration urbanization and their interrelationships in this set of journal articles published in the last ten years. These works range from seminal papers on Chinese urban definitions and statistics; and broad-perspective analysis of the hukou system of its first semi-centennial; to examinations of migration trends and geography; and critical evaluations of Chinaâs 2014 urbanization blueprint and hukou reform plan. This convenient assemblage contains many of Chanâs recent important works. Together they also form a relatively coherent set on this topic. They are essential readings to anyone serious about gaining a true understanding of the prodigious urbanization in contemporary China. . Language: English
