This book was born out of frustration. Until the mid-1990s, I had been
preoccupied by questions of industrialization and capitalist expansion in
my study of contemporary China. By then, however, I found myself increasingly
annoyed by the fact that contacts and friends in China were
changing home addresses and phone numbers too often for me to maintain
contact. I noticed too that during repeated visits, my hopes of discussing
technology transfers and private entrepreneurs were stymied by the drift
in the conversation toward their recent purchases of apartments and cars,
and of their moves to new housing complexes in the urban outskirts.
My interviews with local government officials were often disappointing
as well. Officials’ eyes would light up only when I dropped my own pet
topic of technology upgrade programs and switched the discussion to their
industrial park or new town center. Factories, they thought, were dull.
They much preferred to take me on a tour of the new town plaza, the
new industrial park, and the new wholesale market. Hoping to take advantage
of my background in planning and architecture, local officials would
ask my opinion about their urban expansion plans. Meanwhile, I saw
large sections of “industrial parks” and “high-tech zones” being devoted
to commercial housing, restaurants, resorts, and amusement parks. I was
also told that revenues from land lease sales exceeded the income derived
from industrial taxes. I often left local government offices knowing little
about industrial policy, but a lot about local construction projects. My
camera was loaded with pictures of me standing in front of new structures
next to proud local officials. China had clearly come a long way from the
rural collective industries that marked the success of reforms in the 1980s.
