This book provides researchers and practitioners with an informed study of the land and real estate market in Shanghai. While, there are a number of well-researched books devoted to studying the economic consequences of China's transition to the capitalist market system, few are written about the country's privatization of land control. This book fills the gap by examining the land market mechanism arising from the land use rights reform in Shanghai, which has important implications for real estate development in China as a whole.

For many in the west, "Shanghai" is the quintessence of East Asian modernity, whether imagined as glamorous and exciting, corrupt and impoverishing, or a complex synthesis of the good, the bad, and the ugly. How did "Shanghai" acquire this power? How did people across China and around the world decide that Shanghai was the place to be? Mediasphere Shanghai shows that partial answers to these questions can be found in the products of Shanghai’s media industry, particularly the Shanghai novel, a distinctive genre of installment fiction that flourished from the 1890s to the 1930s. Shanghai fiction supplies not only the imagery that we now consider typical of the city, but, more significantly, the very forms—simultaneity, interruption, mediation, and excess—through which the city could be experienced as a business and entertainment center and envisioned as the focal point of a mediasphere with a national and transnational reach. Existing paradigms of Shanghai culture tend to explain the city’s distinctive literary and visual aesthetics as merely the predictable result of economic conditions and social processes, but Alexander Des Forges maintains that literary texts and other cultural products themselves constitute a conceptual foundation for the city and construct the frame through which it is perceived. Working from a wide range of sources, including installment fiction, photographs, lithographic illustrations, maps, guidebooks, newspapers, and film, Des Forges demonstrates the significant social effects of aesthetic forms and practices. Mediasphere Shanghai offers a new perspective on the cultural history of the city and on the literature and culture of modern China in general.

Shanghai vivante, la plus illuminée des mégapoles, la plus commerçante, la plus névrosée, la plus cosmopolite, la plus cupide fut aussi la plus corrompue. Ernest O. Hauser retrace son histoire, de 1842, lorsque Shanghai n'était qu'un village de pêcheurs, jusqu'à l'attaque par les Japonais en 1937. Il raconte sa croissance fulgurante, l'intrusion des Anglais, les traités inégaux, les Concessions internationale et française, le trafic d'opium, les rivalités, dans un climat apocalyptique de profit. Il nous plonge au cœur de la nouvelle Babylone.

No book provides a more authentic view of the colorful and corrupt world of old Shanghai through the eyes of a foreign resident than Shanghai Saga, the memoir by an Australian who worked as a customs official and newspaper reporter before fleeing from Shanghai in the face of Japanese threats to the fragile world of the "Paris of the Orient." In one of the most wicked cities in the world, trade boomed and vice blossomed along the imposing waterfront, and John Pal had unrivaled opportunities to experience the underbelly of the China's greatest city during the naughty 1920s and 1930s. He tells his own story and that of Shanghai, including accounts of the corruption, the crime, the opium-smuggling gangsters and brothel barons, and the hordes of refugees from the Russian Revolution whose women had to sell their bodies to keep alive and whose menfolk begged in the streets. This is the book which describes old Shanghai most vividly.
