Abstract:The traditional spatial unit of regional development has been going through unprecedented rescaling as well as economic and social reconstruction since 11 th five-year plan period in China. On the basis of Scale Theory and Rescaling Theory, this paper combs out some new spatial scales for governance in China due to down-scaling of national state and up-scaling of urban,including national strategic new area, urban agglomeration, urban corridor and so on,summarizes the general situation of urban and regional planning system from the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development (MOHURD) as well as that from National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC),and analyzes their adaptation to constructing those new spatial scales in China now in the meantime, which shows that regional planning aiming at the same region made by different government departments do not coordinate with each other actually and these plans are still insufficient to guide the orderly regional rescaling. In view of above studies,the paper concludes that government should reform the current urban and regional planning system and some specific proposals are put forward to establish a more suitable planning system responding to rescaling and relative governance remodeling in China, the proposals include: 1) coordinate regional planning system,which require the government attach importance to coordination of urban system planning conducted by MOHURD with regional planning conducted by NDRC in different levels and launch cross-regional land-use planning; 2) further improve development planning and construction planning of Metropolitan areas and balance city and new district development; 3) rationally conduct new district planning, testing zones planning and so on. In addition to these, it is also necessary to steer planning value toward governance-oriented.
