The rise of numerous great city-State and decline, as the number of sand in the Ganges, and the protagonist is always unchanged. This ongoing contemporary China 30 years from bottom to top, the hustle and bustle of the city, perhaps, is the creation of human history the most massive influx of immigrants, but at the same time, the relationship between the city and the people, once again become the life of tension. Who bought our lives? urban space who rules the roost? life must acceleration? what is natural? urban cities better? urban cultural origin accompanied by Shanghai World Expo, “better city, better life” slogan is visible, discussions are also increasingly deepening, the “City” long trouble of editors, but also attempts to answer these questions.
2010 8 March to 1 April, the planning of contemporary cultural research network our city large network Better. Discuss issues with the book, the book’s genre corresponds also quite another class. This book is the Shanghai University, Wang Professor of “hot air contemporary watch” one of the books by Michael Li Chen, cold tea and small illustrative examples together, the content originates from the contemporary Replica Watches cultural research network utilization of online discussions, combing the basic necessities of life in the city. At the same time, participants are also different backgrounds, everyone can raise their hands, white-collar workers, indigenous and foreign students, University teachers and the general public.
Pumping off the “Shanghai” which is a great background, the book also appeared in most modern cities. As someone has said, all of the home are in fact in the fall.
