Counter-urbanization or extended urbanization
This article addresses the growing need to bridge migration studies and urban studies by examining the efficacy of the planetary urbanization framework in enhancing our understanding of how migration is intertwined with urbanization processes. Focusing on the case study of Dali, a small Chinese city that experiences urban transformations associated with the arrival of lifestyle migrants in the last two decades, this article investigates the relat…
The digital-urban frontier in China
The expansion of data centres to global, national and local peripheries necessitates research into their impacts on host places. To this end, this paper analyzes two data centre clusters in less developed provinces in China, which are designated under the country's 'Eastern Data, Western Computing' (EDWC) programme. This paper understands these two places as 'the digital-urban frontier', where data centre development is entangled with urban devel…

Tourism dreams in rubble
Amidst the mounting interest in China's Ecological Civilization (EC) campaign, this paper examines its ground-level implementation and its influences on fostering eco-conscious urban governance. Employing a temporal approach to scrutinize the change in local priorities over time, this paper conducts a detailed case study of Dali, a tourist destination in Southwest China. Environmental protection has escalated in this city over the last decade, ma…
The Second Cold War
Relations between the US and China have deteriorated to their lowest point since their rapprochement in the 1970s. To make sense of contemporary geopolitics, our objective in this article is two-fold. First, we historically situate contemporary US-China rivalry to conceptualise the Second Cold War (SCW). We argue that in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis, both the US and China launched ‘restorative’ political projects that harked back to imag…
Throwing the urban and the rural together
Amidst the backdrop of heightened rural-urban interactions, this article delves into the burgeoning phenomenon of unconventional ecological farms in Dali, a Chinese city that is usually perceived as being on the periphery of the urban world.Employing the planetary urbanization thesis in conjunction with the notion of throwntogetherness, this article explicates the trajectories that underpin the emergence of these peri-urban establishments in a wa…

Doing fieldwork the Chinese way
Insider/outsider status has been recognised in geographical literature as an important aspect of positionality on which researchers should reflect critically. Based on my fieldwork experience in Dali, southwest China, this paper articulates an account of the co‐existence of ‘insiderness’ and ‘outsiderness’ during the research process in a way that adds nuance to scholarly challenges to conceptions of insider/outsider status as an oppositional bin…
