钟摆:中国旧住区改造的70年演进历程

Old residential area regeneration has long been integral to China's urban planning,construction,and governance.This paper divides its history in China into four periods based on the policy and its positioning in the socio-economic pattern:slow development as a non-productive sector(1949to late 1970s),housing marketization under unified planning(late 1970s to early 2000s),a livelihood-oriented transitional period(early 2000s to early 2010s),and a large-scale comprehensive project(early 2010s to the present).It summarizes the positioning,purpose,type,actor,and research characteristics in each period and points out that the old residential area regeneration in China has always been in dynamic interaction between the state,market,and society,presenting complicated characteristics.This process is like a pendulum oscillating between the dual attributes of urban regeneration and housing policies,and relevant studies exploring the Chinese path since 1949 are featured by pragmatism and policy implication.
