Unlike earlier studies that viewed China as a peasant or rural society, this book focuses on the question of whether China can now be considered urbanized. The authors, who are from China, Hong Kong, the U.S. and Canada, consider the degree to which the town-country dichotomy has been obliterated in the China of the 1980s and 1990s. They collectively address China's past and continuing transformation, the multiple factors influencing the urbanization of Chinese society, and the strengths and weaknesses of China's transformation. The work is interdisciplinary, with contributors from the fields of sociology, geography, anthropology, and urban planning.
