二十一世紀前後，亞洲經濟蓬勃而快速成長，中國與印度崛起為全球巨大經濟體； 亞洲文化的特質也正急速竄紅，亞洲海洋區域節點都會的「都市性」(urbanity)演變以及其所帶動的鄉鎮腹地的變化，成為世界文明史不可忽視的一環，它們混合了複雜的人種、特殊的歷史與文化、獨特的地理狀況、以及現代化過程。 建築專業者勢必參與到這亞洲興起的新浪潮中，所以必須了解亞洲、並建構亞洲都市論觀點。
本課程探討對象皆為各所在國的龍頭城市、全球經濟金融文化與消費流行節點，著重城市建築(the architecture of the city)、都市型態學(Typo-morphology)、都會研究的分析討論。 本學期課程聚焦在亞洲華人城市---香港、上海與台北，東北亞的北京、東京與漢城，東南亞的曼谷、新加坡與南亞的孟買，它們是東亞地中海至印度洋海域中的重要都會，歷經十六世紀以來歐洲勢力東漸、亞洲內部劇變的歷史，也在世界史(特指現代史)中扮演特殊的門戶角色。
本學期課程也規劃亞洲外的案例比較部分(如紐約)，希望透過比較以獲得對亞洲城市更深入了解，另外也加入二十世紀後快速崛起的新興都會---深圳與杜拜---的觀察，因此預期提供較寬廣的亞洲視野(對個別城市較不專精深入)，並在課堂進行過程與同學共同思考亞洲城市特質及其時代角色等議題。
本課程將以課堂講授與同學報告為主，以上述四個華人城市為對象，從19世紀到當今發展歷程，分階段/選樣區案例作分組探討與發表報告。Around the 21st century, the Asian economy is booming and growing rapidly, with China and India emerging as giant global economies; the characteristics of Asian culture are also rapidly gaining popularity, and the evolution of "urbanity" in node cities in Asia's maritime regions and their The changes in the hinterland of towns and villages brought about by the epidemic have become a part that cannot be ignored in the history of world civilization. They are a mixture of complex races, special history and culture, unique geographical conditions, and the process of modernization. Architectural professionals are bound to participate in this new wave emerging in Asia, so they must understand Asia and construct an Asian urban theory perspective.
The subjects of this course are all leading cities in each country, global economic, financial, cultural and consumption popular nodes. It focuses on the analysis and discussion of urban architecture (the architecture of the city), urban morphology (Typo-morphology), and urban studies. This semester's course focuses on the Chinese cities in Asia - Hong Kong, Shanghai and Taipei, Beijing, Tokyo and Seoul in Northeast Asia, Bangkok, Singapore in Southeast Asia and Mumbai in South Asia. They are important cities from the Mediterranean to the Indian Ocean in East Asia. After ten years of Since the sixth century, the history of the spread of European power eastward and the drastic changes within Asia has also played a special gateway role in world history (especially modern history).
This semester's course also plans to compare cases outside Asia (such as New York), hoping to gain a deeper understanding of Asian cities through comparison. In addition, it also includes the emerging cities that have risen rapidly after the 20th century---Shenzhen and Dubai--- Therefore, it is expected to provide a broader perspective on Asia (less in-depth study of individual cities), and to think about issues such as the characteristics of Asian cities and their role in the times with classmates during the course of the class.
This course will be based on classroom lectures and student reports. It will focus on the above-mentioned four Chinese cities. From the 19th century to the present day, the development process will be discussed in groups/selected area cases and reports will be published.
