Transformation of the Chinese City, 1995-2005

Focusing primarily on the period 1995-2005 and on research published in English, this article reviews the contributions geographers have made to the field of urban China studies, which are broadly grouped around three themes: internal change and reorganization of cities; the interplay with external globalizing forces; and political and social transformations. This article also proposes research emphases for further consideration.
