Due to the decline of their leading industries, resource-exhausted cities have no choice but depend on upgrading their soft power so as to achieve economic transition and sustainable development.The case city in this paper is Pingxiang, one of the first round of resource-exhausted cities acting as pilot cities in the national sustainable development transformation program.This paper summarizes the city”s experience of enhancing its ”soft power” from seven aspects: determining and adjusting city”s development strategy, constructing service-oriented government, reshaping local culture appeal,improving human capital accumulation, exploiting external ”soft power” to enhance local ”hard power”,striving to create a harmonious society and constructing livable ecological city.Through the enhancement of its soft power, Pingxiang has regained vitality and realized comprehensive development in social construction, cultural construction and economic construction, and thus stepped out of the shadow of”mine exhaustion leading to the decline of the city”.
