The aim of this book is to examine the transformation of the
geography of China in the years since the start of China's policy
of reform and opening-up in 1978, as seen through the eyes of
Chinese geographers. Throughout that period, Chinese geographers
have studied these environmental, economic, political and cultural
processes closely, drawing on sources that are far from easy to
access, and have published their results in Chinese. Much of this
research has underpinned the Chinese government's assessment of
policies and the policy choices at different levels, yet it is not
well known outside of China. This volume deals with aspects of the
socio-economic geography of China's transformation including its
changing relations with the rest of the world, although it also
deals with the impact of China's development path on the country's
ecological systems. Each chapter deals with aggregate trends and
specific cases to show the ways in which the particular
characteristics of China's economic and social order (economic
organization, political system and cultural model and values) have
shaped and are shaped by its geography.
