Internal structure and external cooperation of global city-regions in coastal China

要理解当代中国城市空间的变化，就必须从整体和动态的角度，超越现有的行政区划，考虑城市内部空间的重构以及外部合作关系的形成。在此概念框架下，本研究回顾了近年来关于“全球城市-区域”的热烈讨论，并在实地考察的基础上考察了中国城市空间的新形态。

In order to understand changing urban space in contemporary China, it is inevitable to consider internal urban spatial reconstruction as well as the formation of external cooperative relations, beyond existing administrative divisions, from the integrated and dynamic viewpoint. Within the framework of such conception, reviewing recent lively discussion concerning "global city-regions", this research has examined the new formation of urban space in China on basis of fieldwork.
