Grounded-theory Perspective: Research on the Dimensions of Synergistic Management of Urban Integration

Under the background of economic globalization and information network, the regional economic development in China has transformed into a mode of "block-shaped" unit of urban integration and urban agglomerations. Urban integration strategy has gradually become an important option for the development of China's economy, and the key to the successful implementation of the strategy is the cooperation within the urban agglomerations. Based on the grounded theory and the practices of urban integration in China, this paper researches on the selected factors influencing the collaborative management. Thus a dimensional form of collaborative management of urban integration is attempted based on the research results. The conclusion is that the main dimensions of coordinated management of urban integration are institutional synergy, element synergy and cultural synergy. And the integrated relationship between three dimensions has also been discussed.
