Change and Continuity:Chinese Villages in Transition (I)–Longmei Village

This is the first in a series of four articles ethnographically exploring instances of village transformation in peri-urban China.Each article presents an in-depth case study of a single village and its unique combination of change and continuity.Together,these case studies demonstrate the specificity and idiosyncrasy of village transformation and the need for planners to"take actions that suit local conditions"(yindi zhiyi).This first installment investigates Longmei Village in the Panyu District of Guangzhou Municipality.Longmei’s leaders have encouraged economic transformation through industrialization and real estate development while seeking to maintain the village’s socio-spatial continuity.These competing priorities have led to contradictions in Longmei’s development,as integration into economic networks brings new people,goods,and ideas to the village.This tension has intensified as both registered villagers and migrant workers have pursued divergent visions for Longmei’s future transformation.

旧影心城(英文)

If there isn’t a movie called "Floating City", direct by Hao Yan, the younger generation in the city will not know who aWre the Tanka People. Tanka already exist for a very long time. According to the legend, soldiers in Qin dynasty oppress the Tanka, so the Tanka move to the sea and stay until now. They are known as the "Gypsies on the sea." Now in China, there are 40,000 Tanka people and their boats are patrimonies. Many of them are like 1900 in the movie "Legend of 1900." However, different to 1900’s melancholy,
