Abstract: Urban planning led by single-minded planned economy or single-minded market economy does harm to the sustainability of urban development. The author proposes a new urban planning paradigm featuring ecological rationality and Chinese traditional rationality, which is a reformation and correction of the idealistic planning and the problem- oriented planning. This new urban planning paradigm requires thorough understanding of the demands of the age of ecological civilization, respecting cities as life-beings with consciousness, intelligence and dignity; employs cutting-edge technologies such as big-data, AI, mobile communication and cloud computing as supports to the ideological and technological advancement of urban planning; and continuouslyexplores urban development principles and makes plans and reach decisions accordingly. Those four aspects are the fundamentals on which the new ecologically- rational planning paradigm is established. This paper, by analyzing the transformation of planning ideology and actual planning cases, illustrates how in the course of multi- element and sustainable development of future cities and human-beings, new urban planning should treat the ecological civilization as its ultimate goal and innovation as the driver for new development while paying due respect to the basic principles of urbanization.
