What is a city centre?
A city center is the traditional, historical or artificial hub where people meet, grouping:
- business activity (shopping areas, commerce, administration),
- leisure activities (restaurants, bars, cinemas, museums)
- and high population density.

What is the scope of the research? What do we mean by future of city centre?
China is more than just the world's most populous country. It is a vast land with a rich history and strong cultural identity. China's strong economic growth in recent years has put it in a unique position on the world stage, and the future of China, while uncertain, will have major consequences not just for itself but for the rest of world. Although much has been said over the last few years about this region, there are still many interesting and important aspects uncovered and unexplored.
We are looking at trends that influence the role of city centers in Western countries. What makes a city center attractive, vibrant, an economic and social heart? What defines and will define the quality of a city center?  What are the worldwide trends that impact positively or negatively the city centre?
