Mit der Vollendung der Eisenbahnstrecke von Peking nach Kowloon im November 1995 wurde eine wichtige Nord-Süd-Verbindung in der VR China fertiggestellt. Der Bericht bietet eine ausführliche Darstellung der Vorgeschichte und des Verlaufs dieses Großprojekts, das als charakteristisch für das Konzept einer sozialistischen Gesellschaft chinesischer Prägung gesehen wird. Mit der Fertigstellung der Strecke wird eine grundlegende Verbesserung der Entwicklungschancen des chinesischen Hinterlands erwartet. Vor allem die Region Jiangxi soll von der Eisenbahn profitieren. Experten warnen jedoch vor übersteigerten Erwartungen, vor allem wenn marktwirtschaftliche Prinzipien mißachtet werden. Die neue Eisenbahnverbindung kann überdies bestehende Probleme des chinesischen Eisenbahnwesens wie ein zu niedriges Preisniveau und den Personalüberhang nicht lösen. (BIOst-Wpt)

AbstractThis article explores and complicates notions of public and private urban mobility through the exploration of one site of transport, the Kowloon railway terminus in Hung Hom, Hong Kong. It considers the question: how did the conflicts and tensions between public and private forms of mobility affect policies for the urban environment in colonial Hong Kong? This article explores the Hung Hom railway terminus and its tensions and interactions with automobility and other forms of transport, most pertinently the bus network. Hong Kong's imperial and colonial context further throws into question seemingly straightforward divisions of public and private mobility.
