China's Urban Billion: The Story Behind the Biggest Migration in Human History
Tom Miller
online access from ProQuest EBook Central
check holdings in CityU LibraryFind
By 2030, China's cities will be home to 1 billion people one in every eight people on earth. What kind of lives will China's urban billion lead? And what will China's cities be like?
Over the past thirty years, China's urban population expanded by 500 million people, and is on track to swell by a further 300 million by 2030. Hundreds of millions of these new urban residents are rural migrants, who lead second-class lives without access to urban benefits. Even those lucky citizens who live in modern tower blocks must put up with clogged roads, polluted skies and cityscapes of unremitting ugliness. The rapid expansion of urban China is astonishing, but new policies are urgently needed to create healthier cities.
Combining on-the-ground reportage and up-to-date research, this pivotal book explains why China has failed to reap many of the economic and social benefits of urbanization, and suggests how these problems can be resolved. If its leaders get urbanization right, China will surpass the United States and cement its position as the world's largest economy. But if they get it wrong, China could spend the next twenty years languishing in middle-income torpor, its cities pockmarked by giant slums.

online access from ProQuest Ebook Central

This book examines the Hong Kong media over a forty year period, focusing in particular on how its newspapers and TV stations have struggled for press freedom under the colonial British administration, as well as Chinese rule.
Making full use of newly declassified material, extensive interviews and specific case-studies, it provides an illuminating analysis of the dynamics of political power and its relationship with media censorship.
Overall, this book is an impressive discussion of the evolving face of the Hong Kong media, and is an important contribution to theoretical debates on the relationship between political power, economics, identity and journalism.

道德的人與不道德的社會 (Moral Man and Immoral Society)
萊茵霍爾德.尼布爾 (Reinhold Niebuhr) 著
online access from SuperStar Digital Library
check holdings in CityU LibraryFind
《道德的人與不道德的社會》名著譯叢作者R.尼布爾，美國當代最著名的基督教哲學家，一生著述甚豐，本書是他的代表作之一，系統闡述了他的倫理學和政治學觀點。作者認為，在不可避免的人類分裂及沖突面前，集團主義的殘酷，理性主義者和社會科學者的無能都加劇了人類經濟鬥爭和政治鬥爭帶來的悲劇，道德的人在這不道德的社會中能否生存下，成了我們當代面臨的最大問題。
《道德的人與不道德的社會》集中地體現了作者應用基督教倫理思想對現實社會的分析和研究。
在《道德的人與不道德的社會》中，作者首次提出了必須在個人的社會道德行為與社會群體(包括國家的、種族的、經濟的社會群體)的社會道德行為之間作出嚴格的區別，並根據這一區別說明那些總是讓純粹個人道德觀念感到困惑難堪的政治策略的必要性和存在的理由。
