The prosperity of China's people has advanced very much in recent decades. However, in many respects China is still a developing country, and this is especially true of rural areas where economic progress has not been as marked as in urban areas and where many people still live in relative poverty. The Chinese government recognises that more hard work is needed in order to improve prosperity in the countryside. This book provides a systematic and comprehensive analysis of the situation in China's rural areas, assesses the effectiveness or otherwise of current policies and puts forward proposals for further development.
Info autore
China Development Research Foundation is one of the leading economic think tanks in China, where many of the details of China's economic reform have been formulated. Its work and publications therefore provide great insights into what the Chinese themselves think about economic reform and how it should develop.

Testo aggiuntivo
"The book is a milestone, both in bringing out the flip and flop sides of the development scene and making policy recommendations to mend the situation. Notwithstanding, it lays down framework for the academics, decision makers and the general readership alike to take a leaf from China’s experimentations."
Dr. Sheo Nandan Pandey, OSD (Retd.), PMO, Govt. of India, New Delhi
