By using the Shenzhen-Dongguan-Huizhou sub-region (SDH) in southern China as an empirical case, this book provides convincing evidence that Chinas city-regionalism is essentially a state-orchestrated and institution-based process. Perspectives from market-industry-infrastructure and multi-level governance (MLG) have been provided to systematically examine Chinas city-regionalism. This book has essentially made a definitive contribution to Chinas regional governance. Methodologically, it shows how Chinas city-regionalism can be examined through a problem-solving and case-by-case paradigm, through building a bridge between an empirical slogan and an inclusive theoretical term for institutional integration and through MLG and its integrative approaches in China. Exhilarating findings are presented using extensive tables, graphs, and maps along with the integration of quantitative and qualitative methods. Undergraduates, graduates, and researchers who are interested in Chinas city-regionalism and regional governance would be the readership of the book, and officers from different levels of government as well as policymakers will find the book inspiring. 001475946 650_0 $$aCity planning$$zChina. 001475946 650_0 $$aUrbanization$$zChina. 001475946 650_6 $$aUrbanisation$$zChine. 001475946 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001475946 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aZhang, Xianchun$$tRegional Integration and Governance Reshuffling in the Making of China's City-Regions$$dSingapore : Springer,c2023$$z9789819927913 001475946 830_0 $$aUrban sustainability. 001475946 852__ $$bebk 001475946 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-99-2792-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001475946 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1475946$$pGLOBAL_SET 001475946 980__ $$aBIB 001475946 980__ $$aEBOOK 001475946 982__ $$aEbook 001475946 983__ $$aOnline 001475946 994__ $$a92$$bISE
