Abstract
Urbanization in China has been a political and economic project during the period of economic reform. Using the case study of Guangzhou in south China, this paper aims to examine the process of transformation of Chinese cities into cities of capital, and scrutinise how this transformation entails the dispossession of urban inhabitants’ rights by the state in order to secure land assets to facilitate urban accumulation. Land expropriation and urban redevelopment serve the function of erasing multiple layers of socialist relations and rights that used to be associated with inherited properties from the planned economy era. Dispossession facilitates capital accumulation and helps local governments realise their developmental aspiration, functioning as a sophisticated political project in China’s urbanization process.
