Equally striking are the environmental hazards that have accompanied its economic growth. Although preliminary research efforts have endeavored to highlight the severity and complexity of Shanghai’s environmental problems, few studies on Shanghai’s problems have incorporated new concepts such as adaptive capacity and resilience. This study addressed a wide range of interlocking problems, including environmental problems (e.g., water pollution, diseased pigs, and haze), social phenomena (e.g., environment-induced protests and street protests), land use, socioeconomic vulnerability, and disaster management system, attempting to empirically investigate these problems and analyze its management strategies. The study first formed a theoretical framework and clarified the root of these problems by conducting in-depth interviews with governmental agencies, academic institutions, and scholars. Second, based on the interview results, a field study was conducted along the Suzhou River. Third, to supplement the fieldwork results, secondary statistics (e.g., ambient water quality, air pollution, and water prices) were collected to support the opinions of this study. On the basis of these results, the tension between Shanghai’s pollution and its socioeconomic and institutional systems was examined (e.g., managerial difficulties resulting from expanding indoor pig farming to suburb areas). In addition, transregional integration, industrial development, taxation, and pollution management measures between the central and local governments, between various local governments, and between local governments and the people were discussed. The study concluded by summarizing the environmental conflicts between mainland China’s central and local governments regarding national development strategies (e.g., local governments are aggressively protective of the environment, whereas the central government incessantly places its emphasis on developing heavily polluting industries). In addition, the study supported the discourse on urban planning and disaster management by addressing urban development problems, including the linkage between Shanghai’s spatial development and environmental pollution, financial imbalances between state-owned enterprises and local financial systems, the failed transborder management system, and the segmented division of labor in government disaster management.
