Public Lecture: Jamie Peck, ‘On the frontier of party-state capitalism: Hong Kong, Guangdong & the making of the Greater Bay Area’

Hosted by the University of Sydney, School of Architecture, Design and Planning

When: Tuesday 16 May 6:00pm

Where: New Law Foyer

Free Registration: Get Tickets

Speaker: Jamie Peck, University of British Columbia

China’s Greater Bay Area, comprising nine of Guangdong’s cities and the Special Administrative Regions of Hong Kong and Macau, is one of the world’s most powerful economies, with a GDP exceeding that of Canada, South Korea, and Russia. As a newly inaugurated region-building project, the GBA may be too big to fail, but it may also be too frail to succeed. Institutionally underpowered and internally divided, the GBA straddles (while being defined by) the potentially unstable fault line that separates China’s “two systems,” the socialist market economy of the mainland and the capitalist economies of the offshore SARs. The presentation will consider how to make sense of the GBA, both as a question for political economy and as an epistemological problem.
