The rapid urbanization of China has brought about a new form of urbanization known as mega-city region development, which holds a pivotal role in the country's economic development. This book delves into the challenges faced by these mega-city regions and presents opportunities for discussions and further research.

Since China's economic reform in 1978, there has been an unprecedented surge in population and economic growth, largely concentrated in the mega-city regions of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH), Yangtze River Delta (YRD), and Pearl River Delta (PRD). These regions, despite their limited land area, have witnessed a significant increase in population, leading to various issues and challenges.

Socio-economic development, transportation, environment, governance, and development strategies are among the key challenges faced by these mega-city regions. This book explores these challenges through case studies of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, and Wuhan. It also provides an in-depth analysis of the economy, migration processes, transportation development, environmental conditions, and governance of these regions.

Understanding the complexities of mega-city region development is crucial for formulating effective strategies and policies to sustain this process. This book serves as an essential resource for policymakers, researchers, and stakeholders interested in exploring the dynamics of China's urbanization and its impact on the country's economic growth.
