MANAGING MIGRANT WORKERS AND URBAN SPATIAL PLANNING
Introduction The term "migrant workers", which means peasants who leave the country to enter the city to survive in space and the industrial workers who are separated from agriculture and become the workers of the second and the third industries, first appeared in the 20th century (Reis et al. 2016). Since the 1990s, China has entered the global production system and has implemented an export-oriented economic development model on the basis of comparative advantage under the background of international capital flow; consequently, China has relied on cheap labor as the "world factory" in the global production (Punter 2007). A link should be established to link the urban and rural areas and eliminate the antagonism between urban and rural areas; the migrant workers living in the crowded space will be integrated into the areas near the city to release the crowding out space in the city. [...]the central link between urban and rural areas has become the core of construction. [...]in the long-term employment, migrant workers have more opportunities to contact with the urban social network to cultivate their own urban social capital and improve their living conditions and social statuses to integrate into the city and even become a member of urban residents. [...]the permanent population density area is concentrated in the central city (including Luohu District, Futian District and Nanshan District) 4.2 The integration of migrant workers and urban planning in Shenzhen As an important means of government intervention in urban development, urban planning plays a fundamental role in the distribution and evolution of migrant workers' agglomeration space. Since the reform and opening up, Shenzhen has completed 3 editions of the overall urban planning. in the 86 edition, the industrial layout was concentrated in the Special Administrative Region, which resulted in the distribution of migrant workers in the SAR and its adjacent areas in the early days of the reform and opening up; the 96 edition guided the adjustment of the industrial structure, transferring a large number of low-end manufacturing industries to the former special administrative region, thus attracting a large number of migrant workers to the region; the 07 edition put forward innovation as the lifeline and soul of urban development.
