阅读梁思成之八 “梁陈方案”:两部国都史的总结与终结

Liang-Chen Proposal A Conclusion and Termination of the Two Histories of China's Capital Planning

通过一批新史料的发掘,文章力求还原1950年梁思成和陈占祥共同提出《关于中央人民政府行政中心区位置的建议》("梁陈方案")的历史语境,论证该方案汇聚了中国两条国都规划史的线索:19371949年问的北京"西郊新市区"和1928—1949年的南京中央政治区的规划史。文章还简要分析了它未能被当权者全盘采纳的原因,以及它与今日北京城市状况的关系。

Through a new set of historical materials, this essay attempts to contextualize the ＂Proposal on the Location of the Central Administration District of the Central People＇s Government＂ submitted by Liang Sicheng and Chen Zhanxiang in 1950. The essay analyzes that the proposal was a convergence of two historical threads of China＇s capital planning： that of Beijing＇s ＂New District in the West Suburb＂ during the period of 1937-1949, and the Central Political District in Nanjing between 1928 and 1949. The essay also investigates why the proposal was not completely accepted by the government, as well as its relevance to Beijing＇s present urban condition.
