| Abstract | Wang employs Foucault’s governmentality framework to problematize the making of an urban ecotopia in China, using the International Low-Carbon City in Shenzhen as a case study. Following earlier scholars writing about eco-governmentality, Wang tries to interrogate three questions. Firstly, what are the underlying mentalities that underpin and condition the growing eco-city movement in China in the past decade? Secondly, how to characterize the specific visions of eco-ness and sustainable development that are promoted in current discourses and practices of eco-city building in China? And if there is a gap between rhetoric and reality, how to account for it? Thirdly, how to understand the power dynamics embodied in the discourses and practices of eco-cities in China?. |
