1. Introduction -- 2. Extant Studies: The Dominance of Large Cities -- 3. The Case Study Approach to City Analysis -- 4. Quanzhou: Reclaiming a Glorious Past -- 5. From Obscurity to Global Prominence: Yiwu's Emergence as an International Trade Hub -- 6. Nanning: Perils and Promise of a Frontier City -- 7. Comparing Growth and Internationalization Trajectories -- 8. Conclusion.

This book explores how history shapes city development, assesses the role of government at national and sub-national levels through case studies of three secondary cities, Quanzhou, Yiwu and Nannin, and provides a link between city development and internationalization. In doing so, the book highlights alternative paths to development and internationalization that have received little attention in mainstream discussions. The case study approach in the book allows for deep insights into the development and internationalization of cities, linking development to historical, social, institutional and economic factors-narratives that bridge the two themes of city development and internationalization. Strong analyses is accompanied by photographs and charts that allow the reader to learn about Chinese cities other than the major urban areas in China, garner better understanding of the role of the Chinese state, and appreciate the relevance of "city-specific assets" for city planning. Qianyi Wang is a lecturer at the Economic School of Shandong Technology and Business University, China. Her research focuses on urban-rural coordinated development and urban studies from local stakeholders' perspectives. Kee Cheok Cheong is currently Senior Research Fellow at the Institute of China Studies, University of Malaya, Malaysia. His research interests include economic development, transition economies, particularly China and Vietnam, and international economic relations. Li Ran is Research Fellow at the Institute of China Studies, University of Malaya, Malaysia. Her specialization is in the transformation of China's state enterprises, state enterprise system and China's political-economic system.
