Introduction: The myth of Shenzhen -- Part I. National relevance: Song for the "Story of spring" -- The "southern tours" that changed China -- Part II. Regional history: Gateway city to the South China Sea -- Oysters of the Pearl River Delta -- Part III. City construction: Towers by the Hong Kong border -- Nail-house on "Wall Street" -- Part IV. District transformation: Corporate village in the central business district -- "Slum" in the high-tech garden city -- Conclusion: City of critical experimentation.. - A rural borderland just forty years ago, today Shenzhen is a city of twenty million and a technology hub. This success is attributed to its status as a Special Economic Zone, but no other SEZs compare. Juan Du looks to the past to understand why. It turns out that Shenzhen is no prefab "instant city," but a place influenced by deep local history.--. - info:sid/primo.exlibrisgroup.com-BIBSYS_ILS
