- The research is based on Chinese-language primary and secondary sources and over 110 elite interviews conducted over the course of 13 months of fieldwork in China spread between 2011-2015. The author spent extended periods in provincial capitals like Xi’an, Nanjing, Changsha, and Nanchang to gather written sources and consult government officials, policy experts, urban planners, and businesspeople to flesh out the four main case studies. In addition, the project amassed quantitative indicators for a larger set of 26 Chinese provinces and analysed cross-national 'shadow cases' from Brazil and India to test the generalizability of case-study findings.
