About

Shanghai Jiao Tong University's The Urban Management for Port Cities in the 19th and 20th Centuries course aims to answer the question of how modern port cities managed themselves in the 19th and 20th centuries and created an intercultural sphere for global inhabitants.

Overview

Key facts

The opening of the port cities in East Asia also provided the world with an access to settle down in these treaty ports and provided China, Japan and Korea with an opportunity to observe and learn from the West. Because of the cultural gap between the East and the West, the port cities naturally built up settlements and concessions for dividing various communities. The design of which could decrease the potential tensions between ethnicities or nationalities but it could not stop the following issues of globalisation, such as the spreading of diseases, crimes, pollution, etc. Thus, these port cites then had to work out solutions for communicating different concessions and settlements. Shanghai Jiao Tong University offers the The Urban Management for Port Cities in the 19th and 20th Centuries programme.
