China's Economy into the New Century: Structural Issues and Problems


John Wong & Lu Ding, (eds.)
 
 
China's fourth-generation leadership has put economic growth squarely at the center of their vision of China. It is the source of their legitimacy. But significant structural issues and problems remain if China is to sustain this growth over the medium term. This volume considers some of these issues: regional tensions, development of the financial sector, and infrastructural limitations are all considered in detail. A useful introductory section examines China's own economic planning apparatus, and the quality of the stastical data available, internally and externally, on China's economy.

From Singapore's East Asian Institute, this is an important book on the economy which will drive development in Asia for at least the next decade.
