AbstractIn the 21st century, the impacts of globalization, such as the shift in economic production, forced economic restructurings, are greatly affecting and stimulating the growth of China's and other countries' economic developments. The construction of new cities stems from the need to accommodate a population size of 6 billion in China. The growth of cities in China uses the gather and disperses of resources urban agglomeration formula together with the considerations of each city's individual economic situation, natural resources, and the development pace as its guiding principle to increase the functionalities of cities, establishing stronger organic metropolises. In order to ensure a more balanced and sustainable socio-economic development between all metropolises and smaller districts, three strategic approaches are identified and discussed in this paper.
