This volume provides comprehensive updated coverage of inequality
and poverty issues in China. Some of the methodologies developed
herein are published for the first time and may be used in other
contexts and for other countries. The use of different data sources
and state-of-art research techniques ensures that the findings and
conclusions can be substantiated and that the policy
recommendations are reliable and robust. Contributors to this
volume are renowned experts in their respective areas, including,
notably, Justin Lin, Xing Meng, Kai-yuen Tsui, and Guanghua Wan.
For these reasons, those with an interest in income distribution in
general and China's development in particular, will find this
volume essential reading.
Rapidly rising inequality in China has contributed to the
sluggishness of domestic demand and emerging poverty. It has thus
exerted considerable pressure for commodity exports and represents
a root cause of increased trade disputes. These have profound
ramifications for the US, EU, and other economies, and the
international business community. Consequently, economists and
sociologists, among others, are increasingly focused upon
inequality and poverty issues in China and relevant policy
implications.
This volume, arising from a two-year UNU-WIDER project, addresses
issues that include the inequality-growth relationship,
regional/personal variation in incomes and human well-being such as
education, the determinants of inequality and poverty or their
changes, gaps in innovation capability, and the role played by
China's development strategies in affecting inequality.
