Creative Industries and Urban Spatial Structure: Agent-based Modelling of the Dynamics in Nanjing: Advances in Asian Human-Environmental Research

Autor Helin Liu, Qian Wang, Elisabete A. Silva
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 aug 2015
This book explores the dynamics of the interaction between the development of creative industries and urban land use in Nanjing, a metropolis and a growth pole in the Yangtze River Delta. In the last two decades, China's economy has been undergoing dramatic growth. 
Yet, accompanying with China's economic success is the disturbing environmental deterioration and energy concerns. These issues together with the diminution of the advantage of low-cost labour force present many Chinese cities, particularly big cities specialising in manufacturing in the most developed regions, the urgency to find new approaches to "creative China".

As an ancient city featured by abundance of cultural heritages and legacies of heavy industries, Nanjing has been striving for a decade to transform its economy towards a creative economy by cultivating creative industries. In parallel with the flourishing of creative industries are contest for land resources among differentinterest parties and restructuring of urban land use. Both are new challenges for urban planning. This complex process is examined in this book by an interdisciplinary approach which integrates GIS, ABM, questionnaire investigation and interview.

This book explores the dynamics of the interaction between the
development of creative industries and urban land use in Nanjing, a
metropolis and a growth pole in the Yangtze River Delta. In the last two
decades, China's economy has been undergoing dramatic growth. Yet,
accompanying with China's economic success is the disturbing
environmental deterioration and energy concerns. These issues together
with the diminution of the advantage of low-cost labour force present
many Chinese cities, particularly big cities specialising in
manufacturing in the most developed regions, the urgency to find new
approaches to "creative China". As an ancient city featured by abundance
of cultural heritages and legacies of heavy industries, Nanjing has been
striving for a decade to transform its economy towards a creative
economy by cultivating creative industries. In parallel with the
flourishing of creative industries are contest for land resourcesamong
different interest parties and restructuring of urban land use. Both are
new challenges for urban planning. This complex process is examined in
this book by an interdisciplinary approach which integrates GIS, ABM,
questionnaire investigation and interview.

Caracteristici

Helps the reader to further understand cities in transition in China by historical and descriptive analysis of the case of Nanjing, which represents the second Tier in China urban system Presents the reader how the complex interactions among the creative firms, the creative workers, the urban government and the individual citizens in terms of urban land use can be brought together under one research framework in a tempo-spatial perspective Shows the reader detailed techniques of how to build a spatially explicit agent-based model integrated with GIS data (ABM + GIS) Illustrates how this original spatially agent-based model can be applied in practice to help formulate policies on land use plan and on the development of creative industries Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
