{"product_id":"9789814578400","title":"Political Economy Of Deng's Nanxun, The: Breakthrough In China's Reform And Development: Breakthrough in China's Reform and Development","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis volume is about the political economy of Deng Xiaoping's \u003ci\u003eNanxun\u003c\/i\u003e (tour of South China), which was the most critical phase in China's reform and development since 1978. The first round of Deng's reform resulted in high growth through the 1980s. However, it created a messy half-reformed economy with many problems, including the Tiananmen incident. The immediate aftermath of the Tiananmen was collapse of economic growth and reform deadlock. To break out from this low-level “reform-growth trap”, Deng decided to launch the \u003ci\u003eNanxun\u003c\/i\u003e, not just to reignite the reform but also to complete China's march towards a market economy. Looking back, the \u003ci\u003eNanxun\u003c\/i\u003e led to the most crucial reform breakthrough, which, in turn, sparked off a dynamic reform-growth-nexus for China's eventual economic take-off.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe chapters in this volume were originally “policy reports” on China, meant for the Singapore government. These reports were written based on the information available at that time, and reflected the prevailing political mood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach chapter is accompanied by a detailed introduction that is aimed at providing a broad background for readers to better understand the \u003ci\u003eNanxun\u003c\/i\u003e period. The introduction also serves as a post-evaluation of the events based on new information, and shows how those events have evolved over the years. In combination, these chapters should piece together a reasonably realistic picture of the basic politics and economics of the crucial \u003ci\u003eNanxun\u003c\/i\u003e period.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBackground Chapters:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChina's Per-Capita GNP at the Beginning of Economic Reform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChina's Entrepreneurial Approach to Economic Reform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Politics and Economics of Deng's \u003c\/i\u003eNanxun\u003ci\u003e:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe 7th Party Plenum 1990 and the Continuing Post-Tiananmen Political  Stalemate Over Reform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat is in the Surname, \u003ci\u003eShe\u003c\/i\u003e or \u003ci\u003eZi\u003c\/i\u003e: The Post-Tiananmen Ideological Discord\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEconomic Upsurge in 1992: An Immediate \u003ci\u003eNanxun\u003c\/i\u003e Effect\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat has China Accomplished in Economic Reform in 1994?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft-Landing of the Economy in 1995: The \u003ci\u003eNanxun's\u003c\/i\u003e Climax\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChina's Ninth Five-Year Plan, 1996–2000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eAgricultural and Rural Development:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Quiet Industrial Revolution in the Chinese Countryside: Township and Village Enterprises (TVEs)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhy Deng was So Concerned About  Agriculture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeign Trade and Investment:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProgress in Foreign Trade Reform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChina and the GATT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChina and the World Trade Organization\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoutheast Asian Ethnic Chinese Investing in China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReadership:\u003c\/b\u003e Academics, professionals, policy makers, undergraduate and graduate students interested in China's economic development, China's reform and the open-door policy.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"World Scientific Publishing Company, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47144689729776,"sku":"9789814578400","price":31.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9789814578400_p0.jpg?v=1763691936","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9789814578400","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
