Our Lady of She Shan The She Shan Basilica (officially: Basilica of Our Lady of She Shan, Chinese: 佘山進教之佑聖母大殿; pinyin: Shéshān jìnjiào zhī yòu shèngmǔ dàdiàn) is a Catholic church in Shanghai, China. The name comes from its location on the western peak of She Shan Hill, located in Songjiang District, to the west of Shanghai's metropolitan area. and was at one time the destination of pilgrims from across Asia. It was previously called "Zose Basilica" in English, using the Shanghainese pronunciation of 佘山 (She Shan). The official name of the church is the Church of the Holy Mother in China. The first church on She Shan hill was built in 1863. During the Taiping Rebellion, Jesuit missionaries bought a plot of land on the southern slopes of the hill. A derelict Buddhist monastery had stood on the site. In 1925, the existing church was found to be inadequate, and it lagged far behind other churches in Shanghai in terms of size and ornamentation. The church was demolished and rebuilt. Because the Portuguese priest and architect was very stringent about the quality of construction, the whole project took ten years to finish, and the church was completed in 1935. In 1942, Pope Pius XII ordained the She Shan Cathedral a minor Basilica. In 1946, the Holy See crowned the statue of Our Lady of Zose (Zose being the Shanghainese pronunciation of She Shan) at the apex of the tower. The She Shan Cathedral was heavily damaged during the Cultural Revolution. The stained glass windows of the church, carvings along the Via Dolorosa and the statue atop the bell tower were destroyed. After the Cultural Revolution ended, the damage was gradually repaired. The statue was initially replaced with a simple iron cross, and a replacement statue was installed in 2000. On May 24, 2008 Pope Benedict XVI announced that he had composed a special prayer for Our Lady of Sheshan. .

Suburban Development in Shanghai: a Case of Songjiang
CARDIFF UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF CITY AND REGIONAL PLANNING Suburban Development in Shanghai: A Case of Songjiang Jie Shen Supervisor: Professor Fulong Wu Thesis for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2011 ABSTRACT Since 2000, a new round of suburbanisation characterised by mixed-use clustered development has begun to unfold in China. This research aims to explore the dynamics of recent suburban growth in China and also provide an empirical case for enriching suburban theory. It is held that suburbanisation in China in its current form is by no means a spontaneous process, but results from capitalism’s creation of a new space to facilitate accumulation. Based on this view, the study examines the underlying forces of contemporary suburban growth with regard to three questions: what is the role of suburbanisation in China’s contemporary capital accumulation regime? How are the suburbs developed under coalitions of different actors? And how is suburban development shaped by demand-side actors? The study is founded on an intensive case study of Shanghai and one of its suburban districts, Songjiang. Both qualitative and quantitative research methods are used. Firsthand data from interviews and a questionnaire survey and a wide variety of secondary data were collected, providing a rich fund of knowledge for the research. While similar forms and functions to (post)-suburban settlements that have recently emerged in Western countries are found in Chinese suburbs, suburbanisation through new town development in China is a strategy of capital accumulation in response to a range of new conditions specific to China’s local context. New towns deal with the recentralisation of both fiscal and land development powers on the one hand, and accommodate the increasing housing demands of a diverse labour force on the other.

Co-Circulation of Aedes Flavivirus, Culex Flavivirus, and Quang Binh
Fang et al. Infectious Diseases of Poverty (2018) 7:75 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40249-018-0457-9 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Co-circulation of Aedes flavivirus, Culex flavivirus, and Quang Binh virus in Shanghai, China Yuan Fang1, Yi Zhang1*, Zheng-Bin Zhou1, Wen-Qi Shi1, Shang Xia1, Yuan-Yuan Li1, Jia-Tong Wu1, Qin Liu1 and Guang-Yi Lin2 Abstract Background: With increases in global travel and trade, the spread of arboviruses is undoubtedly alarming. Pathogen detection in field-caught mosquitoes can provide the earliest possible warning of transmission. Insect-specific flavivirus (ISFV) has been first detected in 1991 and documented worldwide in the latest ten years. Although infection with ISFVs is apparently limited to insects, an increase in the infection rate of mosquito-borne flaviviruses may be able to induce cytopathic effects in vertebrate cells during co-infection with other human pathogens. However, little is known whether ISFVs persist in most regions of China. Methods: Duringthemosquitoactivityseasonin2016,asurveillance program was carried out to detect ISFVs in mosquitoes in metropolitan Shanghai, China. The presence of ISFVs was randomly tested in different species of mosquitoesusingRT-PCR-basedandhemi-nestedPCRassays,followingbythesequencingofPCRproducts.Sequences from positive pooled samples were compared with those deposited in GenBank. Thereafter, sequences of representative insect flaviviruses were used for further phylogenetic and molecular evolutionary analyses. Results: Our investigations showed: (1) the presence of Aedes flavivirus (AEFV) in 11/161 pooled samples (nine pools in Songjiang District, one pool in Huangpu District, and one pool in Qingpu District) of Aedes albopictus,(2)thepresenceof Quang Binh virus (QBV) in 10/195 pooled samples (all in Chongming District) of Culex tritaeniorhynchus;and(3)the presence of Culex flavivirus (CxFV) in 9/228 pooled samples (six pools in Pudong New Area, two pools in Huangpu District, and one pool in Chongming District) of Cx.

Sunday, July 24, 2011 Pilgrimage to Sheshan Basilica, Shanghai, China Saturday, 23rd July 2011 Introduction Shanghai is a beautiful and cosmopolitan city set against the backdrop of colonial French and British architecture that line the famous HuangPu River, also know as The Bund. It has been three weeks since I set foot here to start a new part of my career with the bank I currently work for. China may be the next up and coming economic power but it is also a vast country rich in ancient history. It would be insane to be based in China for the next few years and not see any of it, let alone learn and experience the charm of its ancient cultural heritage. I have made it a point to visit as many places in China as I can in the time that I am stationed here. I started with visiting Xitang last week which is an ancient water village located 1.5 hours outside of Shanghai in Zhejiang Province. This weekend, I decided to visit the Sheshan Basilica in the suburbs of Shanghai in Songjiang District. Background of Sheshan Basilica (Extracted from Wikipedia) For the sake of accuracy, I have extracted the history of Sheshan Basilica from Wikipedia and appended it below. 1863: The official name of the church is the Church of the Holy Mother in China. The first church on She Shan hill was built in 1863. During the Taiping Rebellion, Jesuit missionaries bought a plot of land on the southern slopes of the hill. A derelict Buddhist monastery had stood on the site.
