Abstract

This book critically examines how the Chinese government has proactively engaged the nine cities and two special administrative regions (SARs) in the Greater Bay Area (GBA) in Southern China for deeper collaborations to transform the country from a ‘world factory’ to become a leading world economy in innovation and entrepreneurialism. Although the majority of existing studies related to China’s GBA development have offered economic and technological advancement perspectives, this book focuses on critical reflections on how the call for mega-cities development and deeper regional collaborations in GBA would affect people’s livelihood, social integration and urban governance. The central theme of this book builds around ‘cities, social cohesion and governance’.
