首都計劃 – 國民政府南京建都誌

1927年，蔣介石為於南方穩固勢力，決定將國民政府由武漢遷到南京。1928年，國民黨宣告中國統一後，南京也正式成為首都。1929年底，一本名為《首都計劃》的規劃報告公之於世，當時政府勢要把這個六朝古都打造為另一個美國華盛頓。此後南京迎來了近十年的營造高潮，更是自明成祖朱棣改建北京城後，又一次大規模的首都城市建設。 這個折射出西方現代城市規劃思潮的《首都計劃》，背後的意義卻多於一個城市的建設。每一個細節都牽扯到彼時中國最高權力中心的政治之爭，每一個決定都反映當時權力的變化。當理想都城遇上政治角力，將會有什麼結果？本節目將為你揭示1927-1937年的十年間，南京作為當時國民政府都城的意義和影響力。

To consolidate the military power in the Southern China, Chiang Kai-shek moved the government of Chinese Nationalist Party from Wuhan to Nanjing in 1927. After the Chinese Nationalist Party announced the unification of China, Nanjing was also named as the National Capital in 1928. In 1929, the National Capital Programme was officially launched to re-image Nanjing as a more prosperous capital than the Western countries as Chiang Kai-shek attempted to reconstruct this ancient capital into another modern Washington D.C. The reconstruction programme was way more than an urban development scheme, the complex politics surrounding it was triggered within 10 years. The fantastic dream failed at the end beyond money and war. The programme decodes the inextricable linkage between the destiny of The Chinese Nationalist Party and Nanjing.
