UCL School of Management is pleased to invite Maurizio Marinelli, Professor of China and Global Prosperity at UCL and Co-Leader of the Asia Prosperity Research Hub at the Institute for Global Prosperity. Open to the entire UCL community, we'd like to invite you to come along to the UCL Experts & Thought Leaders Speaker Series and connect with a leading industry professional.
During the event, Maurizio will be sharing his expertise on China’s history, economy and growth in his talk, titled ‘Journey Through China – The Past in the Present’ and will delving into the following topics:
- Passion for China and Its Role in My Life and Career
- The Active Presence of History in China’s Development
- The Enduring Dilemma: Balancing Growth and Development
- China’s Unique Developmental Path
- The Constancy of Change
Maurizio’s research is located at the crossroads of history, geography, politics, and society, with a specialisation in Global China and urban studies. His research is comparative and transnational, crossing the boundaries of the domestic and international, and connecting the past with the contemporary. Through an interdisciplinary lens, the exploration of China’s socio-spatial transformation becomes a means to engage with universally experienced themes, such as urban aesthetic regimes, regeneration of colonial/global spaces, urban design and public space, living heritage and sustainable development, within the broader framework of global socio-ecological prosperity and living heritage.
Join us for an insightful evening detailing how history has guided the Chinese community to support their transformation
