Features: This book discusses the world-renowned Three Gorges Project from the perspective of urban planning. Employing a methodology that involves investigating, identifying, and solving problems, it integrates knowledge from related disciplines such as sociology, economics, ecology, aesthetics, and historical theory to study the topic of the Three Gorges Project and the construction of sustainable human settlements in the reservoir area. Through specific discussions on four aspects—urbanization (townshipization) in the Three Gorges region, urban planning, urban design, and the protection of historical and cultural heritage—the book aims to elucidate the social and cultural dimensions of the Three Gorges Project. It proposes an integrated and cohesive framework for the construction of human settlements in the reservoir area and offers practical reflections and suggestions on urban (township) relocation and the resettlement of migrants. Additionally, using the Three Gorges reservoir area as a case study, it contributes to the exploration and research of the theoretical framework for the overall study of human settlements in China.
