Features: Based on the socio-economic environment and conditions that support China's urbanization, this book proposes that to effectively advance China's urbanization process, it is necessary to establish six support systems: the economic support system, the institutional support system, the science and technology and talent support system, the rural and agricultural support system, the resource and environmental support system, and the urban development support system. The book conducts an in-depth and specific study on the content, framework structure, and pathways to establish the two core systems, namely the economic support system and the institutional support system. It also discusses several major issues in urban development and, finally, introduces two case studies with typical urbanization problems. This book can serve as a reference for planners and policymakers, as well as a teaching resource for urban economics and regional economics.
