在今天的发言中,我想就全球城市和世界城市的概念形成及发展过程做一简单描述,并借此探讨文化因素在城市评价指标中是如何一步步凸显出来的。一早在1889年,德国学者Goethe就曾使用“Welstadt”(即德语的“世界城市”)一词描述当时的罗马和巴黎。 In my speech today, I would like to give a brief description of the process of the formation and development of global cities and world cities. I will also explore how cultural factors are gradually highlighted in the city evaluation indicators. Early in 1889, the German scholar Goethe used the term “Welstadt” (German’s “world city”) to describe Rome and Paris at the time.
