Opplysninger | This publication focusses on the shift from building for construction's sake to that of building for progress. After decades of extraordinary development and urbanization, Chinese cities have arrived at a stage of "New Normal". Urban development is now shifting from quantity-driven to quality-driven, with art and culture as a tasty topping for countless developments. It examines the future of (Chinese) cities as a "testimony from the battleground", and how their current metamorphosis can impact cities worldwide especially in the Global South. The key argument is: China has developed a very appealing urban model. Could this be a blueprint for cities worldwide, like the Italian city was once a blueprint for the Northern European city?
