We will see that the change in political economy, brought about by the introduction of market mechanisms, had three main effects both direct and reciprocal on the urban fabric: decentralization, expansion and remodeling the urban structures. By doing so, we will try to elaborate arguments that support the idea that its new economic level, made possible by planning decisions and resulted in the economic reforms of the late 1980s, brought significant changes to the political economy of urban development. As a result, the changes have determined the process of accelerated substitution of land uses, with the radical recovering of existing structures for new uses of capital. O objetivo deste artigo é examinar a estrutura espacial da cidade de Xangai, localizada na República Popular da China, com enfoque na evolução do conjunto de substituição dos usos do solo no centro da aglomeração, como resultado da gradual abertura econômica. A cidade será enquadrada e serão apontados alguns processos por meio dos quais se deu o seu formidável desenvolvimento. Como se verá, a mudança na economia política ocasionada pela introdução de mecanismos de mercado apresentou três efeitos principais diretos sobre o tecido urbano: a descentralização, a expansão e a remodelação ou readaptação de estruturas urbanas. Com base nessa contextualização, serão apresentados argumentos que corroboram a tese de que a entrada em novo patamar econômico, possibilitada por decisões de planejamento que resultaram nas reformas econômicas, trouxe mudanças significativas para a economia política do desenvolvimento urbano, ao determinar o processo de substituição dos usos do solo, com a recuperação radical de estruturas existentes para novos usos do capital.
