Shanghai, China
Shanghai is still known in the West for its infamous role as the base of European imperialism in mainland China
– its decadence, illicit pleasures, racism, appalling social inequalities, and Mafia syndicates.
The intervening fifty years have almost been forgotten, as though the period from when the Communists arrived
and the foreigners moved out was an era in which nothing happened. To some extent this perception is actually true:
for most of the Communist period into the early 1990s, the central government in Beijing deliberately ran Shanghai down,
siphoning off its surplus to other parts of the country to the point where the city came to resemble a living museum, frozen in time since
the 1940s, and housing the largest array of Art Deco architecture in the world.
