  • Coal Liquefaction Policy in China: Expla Ining the Policy Reversal Since 2006
    LABORATORY ON INTERNATIONAL LAW AND REGULATION ILAR Working Paper #12 October 2011 COAL LIQUEFACTION POLICY IN CHINA: EXPLA INING THE POLICY REVERSAL SINCE 2006 FANG RONG AND DAVID G. VICTOR Note: This is an earlier version of a paper in Energy Policy, vol. 39, pp. 8175–8184. About the Laboratory on International Law and Regulation (ILAR) The Laboratory on International Law and Regulation (ILAR) is an international, interdisciplinary laboratory that explores when and why international laws actually work. Among scholars, this question has triggered a lively debate that ILAR is engaging with better theories and evidence. ILAR research examines a wide array of issues from environment and energy to human rights, trade and security issues. The ILAR team looks at these issues from the international perspective and also through comparisons across countries. The Laboratory is part of School of International Relations and Pacific Studies at University of California, San Diego. ILAR gratefully acknowledges anchor funding from the nonpartisan Electric Power Research Institute, BP, plc, the Norwegian Research Foundation and from UC San Diego‘s School of International Relations and Pacific Studies. About ILAR’s Research on Governance of Water, Land and Energy In 2009 the Laboratory on International Law & Regulation (ILAR) has launched a worldwide study on the governance of land, water and energy. The effort arose at a time when the expansion of biofuels, heavy oil and shale gas as well as perennial challenges such as assuring supply of cooling water for power plants have put a spotlight on the energy industry‘s land and water footprints. ILAR‘s research, pursued through a series of case studies, has aimed to understand why some societies have proved highly capable of anticipating and managing stresses on land and water resources that are linked to the energy system while others have faltered.

  • Coupled Relationship Between Rural Livelihoods and the Environment at a Village Scale: a Case Study in the Mongolian Plateau

In light of the complexity of the human–environment system, more interdisciplinary analyses from geographical, environmental, and social sciences are needed. Using qualitative and quantitative methods from social, environmental, and geographical sciences, this study conducted a geographical regionalization and a comparative analysis of rural livelihoods in different zones in the Loess Plateau to explore the relationship between rural livelihoods and the environment. The results indicated that rural livelihoods are tightly coupled with the environment on a village scale, showing significant geographical regularity and spatial disparity. A combination of geographical location, resource endowment, and environmental sanitation affects rural livelihoods in terms of spatial patterns, development capacity, and quality of life in the context of the public ownership system, the utilization policy of land resources, and limited technical conditions. Coupling the relationship between rural livelihoods and a given environment on a village scale tends to lead to one of four types of relationships: “homeostatic”, “intense”, “transferred”, or “optimized”.

  • Ghost City”: Media Discourses and the Negotiation of Home in Ordos, Inner Mongolia, China
    sustainability Article Living in the “Ghost City”: Media Discourses and the Negotiation of Home in Ordos, Inner Mongolia, China Duo Yin 1,2, Junxi Qian 3 and Hong Zhu 1,2,* 1 Centre for Cultural Industry and Cultural Geography, South China Normal University, Guangzhou 510631, China; [email protected] 2 School of Geography, South China Normal University, Guangzhou 510631, China 3 Department of Geography, The University of Hong Kong, Pokfulam Road, Hong Kong, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-20-8521-1896 Received: 8 August 2017; Accepted: 3 November 2017; Published: 6 November 2017 Abstract: Ordos is notoriously represented in media discourses as one of China’s principal “ghost cities”, with skyscrapers, apartment estates and grandiose squares largely unoccupied. The “ghost city” emerges from massive (over)investment in the urban built environment. Aware that economic and financial sustainability are in question, we nonetheless choose to investigate this issue from the perspective of social sustainability, utilizing a theoretical framework informed by geographies of home. Relatively little analysis has thus far been applied to local residents’ everyday practice and agency in making place and home in allegedly “unhomely” ghost cities. This article first examines media discourses and representations of the “ghostly” aspect of the new town in Ordos. It then investigates the ways in which local residents practice and perform their place identity and sense of home in an alleged “ghost city”. Our empirical research in Kangbashi New Town demonstrates that the discourse of ghost cities is valid in so far as we take into account the local residents’ engagement in a process of home-making from below.

  • Frontier Boomtown Urbanism: City Building in Ordos Municipality, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, 2001-2011
    Frontier Boomtown Urbanism: City Building in Ordos Municipality, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, 2001-2011 By Max David Woodworth A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Geography in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor You-tien Hsing, Chair Professor Richard Walker Professor Teresa Caldeira Professor Andrew F. Jones Fall 2013 Abstract Frontier Boomtown Urbanism: City Building in Ordos Municipality, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, 2001-2011 By Max David Woodworth Doctor of Philosophy in Geography University of California, Berkeley Professor You-tien Hsing, Chair This dissertation examines urban transformation in Ordos, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, between 2001 and 2011. The study is situated in the context of research into urbanization in China as the country moved from a mostly rural population to a mostly urban one in the 2000s and as urbanization emerged as a primary objective of the state at various levels. To date, the preponderance of research on Chinese urbanization has produced theory and empirical work through observation of a narrow selection of metropolitan regions of the eastern seaboard. This study is instead a single-city case study of an emergent center for energy resource mining in a frontier region of China. Intensification of coalmining in Ordos coincided with coal-sector reforms and burgeoning demand in the 2000s, which fueled rapid growth in the local economy during the study period. Urban development in a setting of rapid resource-based growth sets the frame in this study in terms of “frontier boomtown urbanism.” Urban transformation is considered in its physical, political, cultural, and environmental dimensions.
