Competition: five copies of Factory Towns of South China to be won
Posted in: Uncategorized
Competition: we’re giving readers the chance to win one of five books about cities around the Pearl River Delta in China, the largest industrial region in the world.
The book documents the rapid growth of cities such as Shenzhen, Dongguan and Foshan that have all sprung up in China’s Guangdong province to accommodate international industrial demand.
It presents images and stories of a wide range of factories; the products they manufacture and the people who work there.
Organised like a guidebook and presented in a colourful, graphic style, it is peppered with maps, diagrams, photos and drawings.
It also contains essays on urban planning, geography, architecture, sociology and anthropology, presenting a multi-disciplinary view on the topic.
Written in both English and Chinese, the book is edited by Dutch architect Stefan Al and published by the Hong Kong University Press.
