Free Download Shangguang Yang, "Urban Migration and Public Governance in China: A Case Study of Shanghai "
English | ISBN: 9819940516 | 2023 | 249 pages | PDF | 3 MB
This book, focusing on urban migration and public governance, reviews on the concepts and theories of urban migration and urban governance across the globe and sums up world migration trends and policy changes, coupled with the characteristics and types of China's urban migration. What differs this book from other books is that it probes into the main factors and mechanisms influencing urban migration and inclusion, and that it adopts Shanghai as a sample and capitalizes on Shanghai's urban migration data to verify the subjective and objective reasons affecting urban migrants' inclusion. Moreover, this book takes a further step to conduct a theoretical reflection from the perspectives of population migration and migration policies and explores current dilemmas facing China in terms of urban migration management and possible ways to make a difference. In the final part, this book puts forward some theory-based and practicable countermeasures to transform urban migration governance inChina.

Free Download Ali Cheshmehzangi, "Urban Memory in City Transitions: The Significance of Place in Mind"
English | ISBN: 9811610029 | 2021 | 328 pages | PDF | 33 MB
As a continuation of 'Identity of Cities and City of Identities', this book covers the arguments around the memory-experience-cognition nexus concerning palimpsests and urban places. As cities experience transitional phases of growth, development, decline, and decay, the author urges considering the notion of urban memory in place-making strategies and design decision-making processes. These explorations would add value to primary fields of architecture, architectural history, cognitive science, human geography, and urbanism.

Free Download Yannan Ding, "Urban Informal Settlements: Chengzhongcun and Chinese Urbanism"
English | ISBN: 9811692017 | 2022 | 167 pages | PDF | 4 MB
This book offers a concise and yet diverse study on the Chengzhongcun. It has a broader scope, both geographical and temporal, than existing works on this topic. The typical Chinese urban informal settlement is related to morphologically similar communities to be found elsewhere in the world. The chapters' themes were inspired by the methods in historical geography, citizenship studies, and new cultural geography. What is truly unique to this book is that ten years after the basis material of this book was defended, it is enriched with practical experience and first-hand observations of the rapidly changing Chinese city. As urbanization in China slows, this book will interest sociologists, urbanists and scholars of China.

English | 2012 | ASIN: B008US3006 | EPUB | pages: 128 | 1.3 mb
We are all expected to behave 'like professionals' while at work; to know how to conduct ourselves in every situation. But what exactly is professional behaviour? And should we always rely on Western manners and etiquette, even while interacting with diffrent cultures? People's ideas of what professionalism means are based on their personal values, their culture and their past experiences. So it is nor surprising that we all have a slightly different view of what constitutes professional behaviour. Elsabé Manning's Up the Corporate Ladder: Professionalism in the Workplace dispels the confusion, guiding us through all business interactions, from how to conduct ourselves professionally while meeting with people from other cultures, to often overlooked rules of e-etiquette.
