Shanghai: Transformation and Modernization under China's Open Policy Shanghai has always held a special status in the history of modem China, harking back to its days of spectacular economic growth and social inequities in the early decades of the 20th century. Its re-energized dash for bold economic reforms and social transformation since 1990, when Pudong was declared an open region to spearhead development for Shanghai, has warranted systematic documentation, analysis and evaluation. Edited by Y. M. Yeung and Sung Yun-wing, this book comprises papers by 27 local and overseas contributors on the political dimensions, economic development, and urban and social infrastructure of Shanghai, as well as issues like population and pollution control.
