  • Urbanization and Sustainability in Asia
    5. People’s Republic of China APRODICIO A. LAQUIAN INTRODUCTION The PeopleÊs Republic of China (PRC) is the most populated country in the world and is undergoing rapid economic development and urbanization. Relevant statistics on the countryÊs development are presented in Table 5.1. Most of the population still live in rural areas. However, by 2030, urban populations are expected to grow by more than 300 million, with 60% of the population living in urban areas. The ability to manage this expected level of urban development will be a major challenge. Significant social and environ- mental problems are already arising from 20 years of rapid growth. This chapter examines some issues facing urbanization in the PRC and introduces three case studies: Revitalizing the Inner City·Case Study of Nanjing, Shenzhen; Building a City from Scratch; and Reviving Rust-belt Industries in the Liaodong Peninsula. The case studies provide examples of the application of good practice in support of sustainable urban development. The final part of the chapter reflects on what has been learned. The PRCÊs commitment to sustainable development can be traced to its participation at the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development. Two years later, the State Council approved the „White Paper on ChinaÊs Population, Environment and Development in the 21st Century.‰ In that document, sustainability as „development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs‰ (WCED 1987) was taken as official policy. The PRC also approved Agenda 21 that spelled out its developmental policies and programs. The PRCÊs Agenda 21 program set as a target the quadrupling of the countryÊs gross national product (GNP) (1980 as the base) and increasing CCh5_101-134.inddh5_101-134.indd 101101 111/15/20061/15/2006 44:26:55:26:55 PMPM 102 Urbanization and Sustainability in Asia its per capita GNP to the level of „moderately developed countries‰ by the year 2000.

Ideophones are defined as a set of words that are phonologically and morphologically marked and depict some form of sensory image (Dingemanse 2011b). Middle Chinese has a large body of ideophones, whose domains range from the depiction of sound, movement, visual and other external senses to the depiction of internal senses (cf. Dingemanse 2012a). There is some work on modern variants of Sinitic languages (cf. Mok 2001; Bodomo 2006; de Sousa 2008; de Sousa 2011; Meng 2012; Wu 2014), but so far, there is no encompassing study of ideophones of a stage in the historical development of Sinitic languages. The purpose of this study is to develop a descriptive model for ideophones in Middle Chinese, which is compatible with what we know about them cross-linguistically. The main research question of this study is “what are the phonological, morphological, semantic and syntactic features of ideophones in Middle Chinese?” This question is studied in terms of three parameters, viz. the parameters of form, of meaning and of use.
