Un groupe d’ouvriers et d’étudiants rebelles, d’abord minoritaire mais bien décidé, va réussir l’impossible : se débarrasser du vieux parti communiste local et de la municipalité somnolente, et prendre le pouvoir dans la ville. Se réclamant explicitement de la Commune de Paris, ils créent un organisme nouveau, la Commune de Shanghai. Les ouvriers et les étudiants sont maîtres de la plus grande ville industrielle de Chine. Le livre retrace presque jour par jour cette aventure unique : la montée de la révolte, les luttes internes, la résistance féroce de ceux qui s’accrochent au pouvoir en s’appuyant sur l’armée, la victoire de la Commune – et puis le recul sur ordre de Mao qui craint lui-même que l’armée le lâche. La Commune de Shanghai, qui devient Comité révolutionnaire, aura duré moins longtemps que la Commune de Paris.

Summary:
Forced to thrust skywards by the constraints of its position on a narrow strip of land between the sea and high mountains, Hong Kong has developed a breath-taking skyline. One of the most densely populated areas in the world, it has a greater number of high-rise structures than any other major international city: more than 2,300 buildings at over 100 metres high – and more are completed almost daily. The originally wild and now largely domesticated topography of the island seems exhausted, fully restricted and there is no more land to be taken from the sea. Mainly European and American architects have played a role in creating the buildings of Hong Kong, but local architects maintain their hold with confidence on this hotly contested market. This guide to architecture presents 100 characteristic buildings that define the urban landscape of the former British Crown Colony.
