作为工业革命发源地英国的政治、经济、文化和交通中心,伦敦率先经历了世界特大城市发展、转型、再发展的历程。随着产业发展及城市规模的扩大,传统制造业的梯度转移、老旧工厂的关闭,以及水、土地等资源短缺日益严重,伦敦在推动城市转型发展方面积累了丰富的经验,尤其是在实现从工业经济时代的“雾伦敦”向服务经济时代的“酷伦敦”转型的过程中的政策举措值得借鉴。
As the political, economic, cultural and transportation center of British, the birthplace of industrial revolution, London has experienced first development, transformation, redevelopment of the large city in the world.With industrial development and urban expansion, the gradual transfer of traditional manufacturing industries, the closure of old plants, and the growing shortage of water, land and other resources, London has accumulated a wealth of experience in promoting the urban transition, especially from the industrial economy,called"London fog",into a service economy,called "cool London".The experience and policy helping realizing the transition process is worth of learning.
