Tianzifang:The Dilemma of Urban Renovation at the Turn of the XXI Century
Résumé
This article is part of a wider research looking at the impact government decisions have on urban dynamics and urban dwellers in the case of Shanghai and Xi'an, China. The specific case analysed here, the lilong (lanes and alleys) of Tianzifang, demonstrates that even if the transformation of the neighbourhood is an inexorable force pushed by the municipality, other forces are at work. As the discussion will show, the role of artists has been of utmost importance in the case of Tianzifang.
