Taylor & Francis Ltd Chinas Pension System
Since 1978, when China started remaking its economy, it has also embarked on an unparalleled effort at remaking its pension system to accommodate its hybrid economic model.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Understanding Urban Cycling
Book SynopsisAcademic interest in cycling has burgeoned in recent years with significant literature relating to the health and environmental benefits of cycling, the necessity for cycle-specific infrastructure, and the embodied experiences of cycling.Based upon primary research in a variety of contexts such as London, Shanghai and Taipei, this book demonstrates that recent developments in urban cycling policy and practice are closely linked to broader processes of capital accumulation. It argues that cycling is increasingly caught up in discourses around smart cities that emphasise technological solutions to environmental problems and neoliberal ideas on individual responsibility and bio-political conduct, which only results in solutions that prioritise those who are already mobile. Accordingly, the central argument of the book is not that the popularisation of cycling is inherently bad, but that the manner in which cycling is being popularised gives cause for social and environmental conTable of Contents1. Cycling toward sustainability? 2. Towards a political-economy of cycling 3. Making up the (productive) cycling subject: excluding the ‘non-standard’ user in cycle infrastructure design 4. Extracting surplus value from mobility: cycling policy and practice in London (UK) as a mode of political-economic and bio-political governance 5. Economising ‘trick’ cycling on London’s South Bank: culture-led regeneration, spectacle and ‘entertailing’ 6. Building the Taiwanese mobilityscape: an actor-network account of the journey from Bicycle Kingdom to Cycling Paradise 7. Transport solution or vehicle for surveillance capitalism? A case study of Dockless Public Bike Sharing (PBSS2.0) in Shanghai 8. Conclusions: where do we go from here?
