The book covers the Chinese transformation beginning in the 1950s and continuing through the second decade of the twenty-first century. It includes an analysis of the forces that held China back before 1949, the nature of the economy as it operated under the Soviet model of development, and the transformation since 1978 into a “socialist market economy.” The essays of the post-1978 era reflect the author's view of the state of the reform effort at the time the essay was written and carries the story up to the 2012–2013 slowdown in economic growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Historical Foundation:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistory, Politics and 30 Years of Development and Reform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGovernment as an Obstacle to Industrialization: The Case of 19th Century China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eCentral Planning and Collective Agriculture, 1955–1978:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentralization and Decentralization in Mainland China's Agriculture, 1949–1962\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndustrial Planning and Management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChina's Economic Policy and Performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eChina's Economic Reforms, 1978–2013:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReforming China's Economic System\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChina's “Gradual” Approach to Market Reforms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Challenges of China's Growth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Future:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForecasting China's Economic Growth to 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChina's Investment and GDP Growth Boom: When and How Will It End?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReadership:\u003c\/b\u003e Graduate students and researchers interested in Chinese Studies and Asian economies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers the economic transformation of China from 1950s until now\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForecasts China's economic growth in the next 25 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly informative, timely and insightful resource for researchers interested in Chinese economic history \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"World Scientific Publishing Company, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47185299570928,"sku":"9789814612395","price":46.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9789814612395_p0.jpg?v=1763692211","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9789814612395","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
