This working paper is one in a series of OECD Working Papers on Regional Development of the
OECD Public Governance and Territorial Development Directorate, conducted under the responsibility of
Marcos Bonturi, Head of the OECD Regional Competitiveness and Governance Division.
China has become the world’s largest urban nation, with over 600 million urban citizens today.
Projections indicate that this level may reach 900 million in 2030. The way this urbanisation process is
managed will have important policy implications for China and beyond. This paper provides an
introduction to urban trends and policies in China. It describes urban growth trends, where and in what
kinds of cities growth is occurring, how China’s cities are governed, and how public policy has influenced
the extent, pace, and spatial distribution of urbanisation. As China continues to integrate with the
globalising economy, its competitiveness will increasingly be driven by the capacities of its metropolitan
regions to improve the productivity of enterprises in ever-widening supply chains. The report concludes
with a description of some of the key policy challenges facing central and local urban governments in this
global context, including: 1) institutional constraints to markets and factor mobility; 2) environmental
challenges; 3) ensuring equity and helping vulnerable groups; and 4) metropolitan governance.
This report is part of a programme of work of the Territorial Development Policy Committee on
Trends in National Urban Policies, conducted by the Urban Development Unit of the OECD Regional
Competitiveness and Governance Division.
The paper has been conceived, co-ordinated and edited by Lamia Kamal-Chaoui, OECD Head of the
