This interdisciplinary  publication explores the phenomenon of “Chinese New Towns” based on  international research carried out by architects, planners and  geographers. It focuses on psychological and social ramifications, for  instance how New Towns change perceptions of the neighbourhood and  proximity, and analyses how this new urbanity affects politics and the  national narrative. The book examines the spaces of three new towns in  detail – Tongzhou, Zhaoqing and Zhengdong – and then moves on to  investigate both the exceptionality and the ordinariness of Chinese  urbanisation.
