Beijing has several millennia of human history. It has been a city of regional importance for many centuries, first becoming the Chinese imperial capital in 1267. The city has been known by various names through the ages, reflecting a turbulent history of change. As the political and cultural heart of modern China, Beijing has grown dramatically since the Communist revolution of 1949.Beijing Then and Now shows how that dramatic modernization has affected the city and how, despite all the new building and modern infrastructure, some of the great historic sites have been preserved and maintained. Sites include: Deshengmen Arrow Tower, Qianmen Arrow Tower, Qianmen Gate, Entrance to the Imperial City, Mao's Mausoleum, Tiananmen Gate, Duanmen Gate, Entrance to the Forbidden City, Wumen Gate, Hall of Supreme Harmony, Jingshan, Beihai Park, the White Dagoba, Imperial Canal, Drum Tower, Beihai Lake, Bell Tower, Temple of Confucius, Hall of Classics, Imperial Observatory, Qianmen Boulevard, Hall of Prayer, Altar of Heaven, British Legation, Dong Tang, Marble Boat, Jade Belt Bridge, Ming Tombs, Spirit Road and the Great Wall of China.

"Tiananmen Square is the most sacred space in Beijing - a site for Mao's monumental portrait, for museums, parades and, more recently, for violent demonstrations. Wu Hung grew up in Beijing and witnessed its transformation. In this lavishly illustrated work he offers a vivid, often personal, account of the struggle over Beijing's reinvention and offers new insights into the city's history. The final part of the book is devoted to paintings, photographs and performances by artists that take issue with the political and cultural meanings of Tiananmen Square and official efforts of repression."--BOOK JACKET.

This World Cities Series volume is a major work on the nature of the Chinese city and the traditional concept of Chinese city planning. It uses Beijing as the case study, and its theme is how the traditional Chinese world view has influenced the function and layout of the traditional Chinese city and in particular, the capital city. The influence of Communist planning since 1949 is also traced and discussed to show how socialist principles have come to overlay and modify ancient structure. Further chapters cover city planning, housing, urban transport, urban environment, social areas, and economic and non-economic functions of the city. Beijing provides an historical perspective of over 5000 years in its first three chapters, but the remainder focuses is on the present-day role, layout and problems of one of the world?s greatest and most complex historic cities and the capital of the most populous nation. This book will be essential reading for planners, historians, geographers and Sinologists as well as providing ?background? both for tourists and armchair travellers.

With the rise of China and massive new migrations, China has adjusted its policy towards the Chinese overseas in Southeast Asia and beyond. This book deals with Beijing’s policy which has been a response to the external events involving the Chinese overseas as well as the internal needs of China. It appears that a rising China considers the Chinese overseas as a source of socio-political and economic capital and would extend its protection to them whenever this is not in conflict with its core national interest. The impacts on and the responses of the relevant countries, especially those in Southeast Asia, are also examined
