Abstract

As a unique attempt of socialist practice in China, Danwei (the unit) system, which formed in the planned economy and died out with the establishment of socialist market economy, has deeply influenced the social structure and urban form in China. From the perspective of urban landscape, this paper studies and interprets the social evolution and changes of urban form from the establishment of Danwei to its disintegration, exemplified by SUNCUN in Shandong, revealing the particularity and complexity of China’s social and spatial practice
