China's rise as the world's second-largest economy surely is the
most dramatic development in the global economy since the year
2000. Volume II, which spans China's two turbulent centuries from
1800, charts this wrenching process of an ancient empire being
transformed to re-emerge as a major world power. This volume for
the first time brings together the fruits of pioneering
international scholarship in all dimensions of economic history to
provide an authoritative and comprehensive overview of this
tumultuous and dramatic transformation. In many cases, it offers a
fundamental reinterpretation of major themes in Chinese economic
history, such as the role of ideology, the rise of new
institutions, human capital and public infrastructure, the impact
of Western and Japanese imperialism, the role of external trade and
investment, and the evolution of living standards in both the
pre-Communist and Communist eras. The volume includes seven
important chapters on the Mao and reform eras and provides a
critical historical perspective linking the past with the present
and future.
