The research results prove that: between 2009 and 2013, Wuhan Urban Agglomeration expanded gradually from northwest to southeast and presented the dynamic evolution features of “along the river and the road”. The spatial structure is obvious, forming the pattern of “core-periphery”. The development of Wuhan Urban Agglomeration has obvious imbalance in economic geography space, presenting the development tendency of “One prominent, stronger in the west and weaker in the east”. The contract within Wuhan Urban Agglomeration is gradually decreased. Wuhan city and its surrounding areas have stronger economic growth strength as well as the cities along The Yangtze River. However, the relative development rate of Wuhan city area is still far higher than other cities and counties.展开更多

However, widely different from the West, China's gated communities are mainly promoted by China's endogenous culture and social restructuring, which has also aggravated urban problems in recent years, such as spatial privatization, social segregation, residential discrimination, and traffic inaccessibility. According to some surveys and local experiences in China, the government reform of opening gated communities has actually failed since 2005. The objectives of this research therefore are to explain the paradox between maintaining culture and opposing policies, and the disputes between government, developers, residents, and experts relating to gated communities in China. By analyzing its evolution, characteristics, mechanism, and trend, the research finds that gating is represented as distinct symbols for various groups carrying different targets and values, and the solution to eliminate its negative influences is not to find an alternative residential pattern, but to make and implement new estate policies and design specifications.展开更多

This paper analyzes the formation of Wuhan metropolitan cluster space from the perspective of power relationship. A "twin-city" approach is developed in the peripheral area of Wuhan caused by the game between local governments at different levels. With the equal development opportunities in all directions and the alliances between different district governments and capital, the balancedly embedded cluster space is formed in Wuhan metropolitan area. And if there are no huge internal and external changes, the cluster space in Wuhan will continue to develop.展开更多
