The Internal Logic of Space Production in China’s Development Zones from the Perspective of New Marxism

Abstract

: Based on new Marxist spatial production and capital three cycles theory, the article puts forward critical thinking under the Chinese context. Combined with the actual development history of Beijing Economic-Technological Development Area, it empirically analyzes the three-stage cycle of industrial production, built environmental production, science and technology production in the development zone. From the interactive game relationship between the central and local governments, the government and the market, the theoretical analysis framework of space production in China’s development zones is proposed. In the “second half” of urbanization, which is gradually transformed from incremental development to stock update, the interest game of the central government, local governments, capital markets and original rights holders in the process of space redevelopment in the development zone will be more complicated. How to better coordinate the land benefit distribution pattern and reconstruct the spatial order of the development zone by the planning and governance system is the key to achieve efficient, orderly and innovative development of the development zone in the future.
