The purpose of this volume is to explore sustainable innovation and
"fair development" in China. It examines various existing problems
currently faced in China, such as food safety, education,
healthcare, employment, housing, the environment and censorship,
among others, and provides different perspectives in relation to
fair development. Topics covered include coordinated governance,
energy consumption and policy, dynamic sustainability, green
marketing, and people-oriented education. While the focus of the
volume is on China, the research process and structure presented
can also be used to explore fair development in other emerging
economies. Fair development is a framework that includes such
principles as sustainability, with particular respect to the
implications for human development in the context of available
opportunities, resources, and outputs. China, the world's second
largest economy, continues to face several challenges when pursuing
sustainable development, such as unbalanced growth pressure in the
central and western regions and rural areas of China, the fragility
of the natural environment, and resource constraints and structural
problems in economic and social development. It is a crucial
mission for China to sustain economic growth without sacrificing
environmental sustainability or human rights. For example, there is
increasing pressure on China to reduce its dependence on fossil
energy. Therefore, innovations in technologies, management, and
even systems are critical to drive a transition to low-carbon
energy, which will be a long-term process. Featuring contributions
from a diverse group of researchers from multiple disciplines, this
volume provides a comprehensive collection of perspectives on
economic, political, and social development in China.
