An Introduction to the Chinese Economy
John Wiley and Sons Ltd, Sep 2010, Pages: 256
This comprehensive overview of the modern Chinese economy by a noted expert from China offers a quality and breadth of coverage. In this book, the author provides an introduction to China's economy since 1949 and original insights based on his own extensive research. The book sets out to analyze and compare the operational mechanisms of the Chinese economy between the pre- and post-reform periods and through national, regional and local dimensions. Both positive and negative consequences of the Chinese economic transformation have been clarified. A multiregional comparison of the Chinese economy is conducted in terms of natural and human resources, institutional evolution, as well as economic and social performances. At last, some key issues relating to the inherent operational mechanisms of and the dynamic patterns of the Chinese economy are also discussed.
Reviews:
Professor Guo Rongxing delivers exactly what he promises: an introduction to the Chinese economy. But he touches all the right bases, and his explanations are always clear. The treatment is balanced, with appropriate historical perspective. The final chapter on fundamental issues in China's economic development is particularly thoughtful.
-- Richard C. Bush, Senior Fellow and Director, Center for Northeast Asian Policy Studies, The Brookings Institution, and Co-author of A War Like No Other: The Truth About China's Challenge to America
Teachers of introductory courses on the People's Republic of China will find this book very useful. It not only provides an introduction to the success of the world's most dynamic economy, it places that development in its social, cultural, and political contexts with a great deal of insight and erudition.
-- David S. G. Goodman, Professor of Chinese Politics and Director, Institute of Social Sciences, University of Sydney
An excellent overview of basic facts about China's economy, society, political system, government, geography and history.
-- Pieter Bottelier, Economist and Senior Adjunct Professor, Johns Hopkins University
Professor Guo Rongxing uses events from Chinese history and concepts from Chinese philosophy to illuminate Chinese political economy, thereby adding an important, previously missing piece of the Chinese jigsaw puzzle and bringing a valuable Chinese perspective to understanding China.
