(NBUCI) AND NINGBO’S TIANYI SQUARE PROJECT Zhang Han | The University of Hong Kong An Entrepreneurial Party-state and Its “City Manager”: The Ningbo Urban Construction Investment Holding Co., Ltd. (NBUCI) and Ningbo’s Tianyi Square Project Zhang Han PhD candidate Department of Sociology The University of Hong Kong HYI “Grassroots Society and Popular Culture in China” training program visiting fellow (2010-2011) Abstract: In contemporary China’s urban governance, city governments operate local state enterprises which engage in land and real estate developments, and thus intervene in the production of urban space.
