Description

The cities of Beijing and Tianjin have had a long and complementary relationship. Tianjin has been central to Beijing's development--just as Beijing has to Tianjin's--mainly due to its strategic coastal location. This book explores how the dual relationship between these cities (despite occasionally faltering when political ideology has overshadowed economic prosperity) has developed two very similar economies--one as the center of culture and politics, the other as the center of industrialization.
