To gain a deeper understanding of urban planning,this paper examines its functional,occupational,and disciplinary perspectives,with each perspective reflect-ing distinctive evolutionary processes.For a significant period of time in history,China's urban planning was characterized by"three-dimensional isomorphism",which supported the country's rapid urbanization.However,the situation can no longer ac-commodate the needs of contemporary modernization with Chinese characteristics.There is an inherent tension between value orientation,efficiency evaluation,and gov-ernance modernization.Beyond the"three-dimensional isomorphism",urban planning can be seen as an important tool for the Party and the state in leading Chinese-style modernization.The key to effective urban planning lies in the process of reconstruct-ing production relations among different stakeholders.The paper highlights the impor-tance of understanding the institutional context and governance foundations before planning,as well as the sustainability and outcomes of plan implementation.To im-prove the urban planning system,the paper advocates for establishing a people-centered urban governance mechanism that takes into account people's rights.
