The purpose fo this book is to provide an in-depth analysis of some essential issues during the Deng Xiaoping reform as well as during the transition towards the post-Deng era. This volume discusses fundamental problems in three main areas: economic reform, political transition and foreign relations. This volume features the perspective of an important new generation of younger China scholars, who were themselves grew up in China, but earned their PhDs overseas.
