| Description: |
This volume provides a comprehensive assessment of China's economic reforms since the beginning of the 1980s. It explains how the new economic system works, highlighting its strengths and weaknesses. It also considers the likely implications of recent changes for China's future development pattern. |
| Synopsis: |
At the heart of China's remarkable economic growth is a new economic system, which has emerged out of radical reforms in virtually all areas of economic activity. Understanding this system is the key to understanding the Chinese economy. This book, the culmination of many years of research in Hong Kong and China, is a comprehensive account of these systemic reforms, as well as of their transferability to other economies in transition. The starting-point of Dr Chai's analysis is a careful examination of the structural elements of China's new economic system, focusing particularly on the decentralization of property rights in both the agricultural and industrial sectors. There follows a detailed analysis of changes in the functional elements of the system: its price and financial mechanisms. An assessment of the open-door policy also considers the twin impact of the liberalization of China's foreign trade and foreign investment regimes. Finally, China: Transition to a Market Economy highlights the increasingly important role of the non-state sector in facilitating economic growth and structural transformation.It will be essential reading for any student or researcher concerned with the Chinese economy, or with transition economies in general |
