Opis

China's explosive economic growth since 1988 has not resulted in an equal increase of income among all Chinese citizens. The authors explore a range of reasons for the disparity and base their conclusions on strong empirical evidence--especially the 1996 survey conducted by the State Statistical Bureau.

Recenzje

A valuable contribution ... The study sounds an alarm at the right time. It provides new data for the ongoing debates of transition to market economies. This book is a valuable reference for researchers and students interested in China studies, development economics, and statistics and sociology.
