The rural market in China is not only the venue where 60 per cent
of the country's 1.3 billion inhabitants buy their daily
necessities and sell agricultural products, but also a key area of
conflict between government control and liberalization policies.
Previous research on the topic has adopted a purely economic
perspective, focusing on macro issues such as price control and
grain procurement. This book focuses instead on peasants - the
major participants in rural marketing activities. Illustrated by
two comparative case studies with a diverse level of development
from the Pearl River Delta - one of the most prosperous regions in
coastal China - this book investigates the market hierarchy, its
change of functions and the interactions between peasants and
market outlets. In doing so, it shows how China's rural market
district has changed since the Reform, and how these changes affect
the marketing activities of peasants.
