Abstract
At the end of the first thirty years of rapid urbanization, to have some assurance of achieving the objectives of the National Plan of Urbanization in 2025 – that is 900 million “urban living people” – the Chinese government seems determined to change the hukou system after more than fifty years since its inception: to abolish it completely for the cities declared as “small” and more gradually for the city referred to as “medium”. A comparison between the “physiographic” situation of the Chinese territory of the late nineteenth century and the condition of the existing urban and rural areas, strengthens the hypothesis of a complete restoration of macro historical regions to recover the structural constants capable of solving the astonishing problems of contemporary China and give meaning to its modernity.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
