Opis

The reemergence of China as an economic superpower during its systemic transition away from socialism is an astonishing phenomenon. In "China and Post-Socialist Development," Andrzej Bolesta offers the first comprehensive study to frame China s advancements within the context of the East Asian developmental miracle.
Setting China s advancements against the background of post-socialist transformation, he asks how this phenomenon occurred and where China goes from here. As China transitions from central planning to a market economy, it imitates the institutions and policies of Japan and South Korea during their high growth periods of the second half of the twentieth century. China s approachwhile broadly in opposition to the neoliberal doctrinehas brought impressive results, and, as Bolesta argues, has profound implications for the nation s future."
