Analysis of the Development of Beijing (2018)

This book provides an overview of the rapid development Beijing has seen in a wide range of areas in 2017, both in itself and as an integral part of a larger region, as China’s economic development continues to improve in overall quality and regional coordination. General reports on progress Beijing made and problems it faced in 2017 in improving its economy, public services, municipal and community governance, urban planning, and funding for innovations are followed by case studies that look at best practices and how they can be applied towards promoting coordinated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region. The strategy features prominently in the outlook contributors present for the greater metropolitan area of Beijing for 2018.

This book is a valuable source of reference for anyone trying to gain a better understanding the what, how, and why in relation to one of the world’s fastest growing mega-cities.
