摘要
Jingdezhen, the porcelain capital of China, is located in the northeastern part of Jiangxi Province. This paper summarizes the historical development of Jingdezhen, dating back to the Han Dynasty—when pottery production first began in this city. It is worth mentioning that Jingdezhen has gradually become the world's porcelain manufacturing center, especially since the North Song Dynasty. The urban land increased greatly after the liberation in 1949, and the urban population had approximately 69.95% of the total population as of 2017. The market share of porcelain production in Jingdezhen has been threatened and divided by other cities. Additionally, the resources depletion in Jingdezhen makes the development of porcelain manufacturing face a bottleneck. Therefore, Jingdezhen exploits the advantages from its the abundant porcelain culture to promote industrial transformation and upgrading. Furthermore, in the future, Jingdezhen should vigorously develop itself based on “big porcelain”, incorporating tourism, culture, porcelain, and aviation manufacturing as entities to accelerate the development of its modern transition economy.
