Gobi: from “Space of Flows” to a Space of People and Places
Gobi: From “Space of Flows” to a Space of People and Places Relational Analysis, Critique, and Proposal for an Alter-Urbanization Guan Min and Andrew Stokols I. Gobi: Space of Flows (Relational analysis) The Gobi Desert is being remade into a space of flows between China and Europe. This is the result of two primary forces: 1. The geopolitical strategy of China to more closely integrate European, Central Asian, and ultimately Middle Eastern economies into its own with the goal of creating an integrated economic zone. 2. The calculations of multinational electronics and automotive companies that are beginning to ship products between China and Europe using overland rail routes that are now faster than sea routes. China is investing billions in new roads, rail, inland ‘ports’, logistics centers, and other infrastructure designed to realize this political project. Logistics companies and electronic firms are also partnering with state-owned rail companies in China, Russia, and Kazakhstan to reduce tariffs, customs processing times, and other bureaucratic obstacles to free trade. These new infrastructures and associated urban nodes are facilitating increased trade flows in products between Europe and China, as well as the increased extraction of raw materials like oil and natural gas. Additionally, the growth of new connective infrastructures are facilitating plans for export zones at border ports and in certain Western Chinese cities like Xi’an, Urumqi, and Lanzhou. These new cities are predicated on attracting investment from high-tech companies and facilitating a transfer of manufacturing and industry from China’s East to China’s west. But until now, most of the growth of manufacturing in the West has been that related to extraction, including oil, coal, and mining. -

We selected coastal metropoles (Shanghai and Shenzhen in China, and Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam) and inland metropoles (Ulaanbaatar in Mongolia, Lanzhou in China, and Vientiane in Laos) with various developing stages and physical conditions for examining the spatiotemporal patterns of urban expansions in the past 25 years (1990–2015). Multitemporal Landsat images with 30 m spatial resolution were used to develop urban impervious surface area (ISA) distributions and examine their dynamic changes. -

Project Summary for Public Disclosure Project Overview Project Name Lanzhou New Area Regional Hub Multimodal Logistics and Transport Infrastructure Demonstration Project Country The People’s Republic of China Sector Transport Approval Date (by the Board) 25 June 2019 Total Project Cost RMB 3,899.3 million Proposed Loan Amount RMB 2,511.9 million Borrower The People’s Republic of China Implementation Agency Lanzhou New Area Administration I. Introduction Lanzhou New Area (LNA), established in 2012 as a State-level New Area 1 , is a new extension of Lanzhou City (the capital city of Gansu Province) with the size of 1,744 square kilometers. LNA has been positioned as the industrial base and economic zone of western provinces of China. With a robust growth in the past six years since establishment, LNA took the lead in economic growth among the existing New Areas established in China. It witnessed a total of 9,770 new companies registered and settled, a total of 350 global trade companies exporting to over 50 countries, and a total of 627 companies relocated to its industrial base. The rapid industrial development has generated a high demand of logistics services in LNA. The growing demand for the logistics infrastructure has quickly become the impediment to further economic development. II. Project Description Objectives of the Project are to build multimodal logistics infrastructure, connecting road railways and airport, to reduce logistics gap, meet growing demand of infrastructure, and boost economic growth. Components of the Project include: (i) rail stations, rail tracks, 1 State-level New Areas are state-approved administrative establishment to further the development of industry, technology and innovation, and to promote social-economic development of a region or sub-region. -
