Abstract
The early industrial heritage of Anshan Steel Works is not only an important contested heritage to the spread of technology after the world industrial revolution, but also a typical representative of “passive receiving” the modernization of Chinese architecture. This research analyzes the colonial construction institutions and their technicians’ construction activities, professional backgrounds and ideology in different development stages through the historical staging of the construction of the Japan-ruled Anshan Steel Plant and city streets from 1916 to 1945, interpreting the power and construction process of Anshan, a unique industrial-dependent colonial society and urban space.
