Chinese Cyberspaces

Chinese Cyberspaces provides a multi-disciplinary study on the recent development and

consequences of Internet expansion in China taken from social, political, cultural and

economic perspectives. The book provides critical analysis of the effects of Internet

technology on China’s information policy and overall political stability as well as the

political implications.

Original fieldwork from a leading group of international scholars carried out over the

last two years suggests that although the digital divide has developed along typical lines

of gender, urban versus rural, and income, it has also been greatly influenced by the

Communist Party’s attempts to exert efficient control. This compelling overview of the

current situation regarding Internet development in China and its potential future trends

will appeal to social science academics and decision makers in politics, business and

international organizations.

Asia’s Great Cities

Each volume aims to capture the heartbeat of the contemporary city from multiple

perspectives emblematic of the authors’ own deep familiarity with the distinctive faces of

the city, its history, society, culture, politics and economics, and its evolving position in

national, regional and global frameworks. While most volumes emphasize urban

developments since the Second World War, some pay close attention to the legacy of the

longue durée in shaping the contemporary. Thematic and comparative volumes address

such themes as urbanization, economic and financial linkages, architecture and space,

wealth and power, gendered relationships, planning and anarchy, and ethnographies in

national and regional perspective.
