After three decades of spectacular economic growth in China, the
problem is no longer how to achieve growth, but how to manage its
consequences and how to sustain it. The most important consequence,
at least as far as Chinese policy makers are concerned, is the
rapidly growing inequality, between persons, between rural and
urban areas, and between inland and coastal regions. At the same
time, the institutions that have brought rapid growth so far are
now under stress, and there is a need to reform and innovate on
this front in order to sustain rapid growth, and to have growth
with equity.
The analytical literature has responded to the emerging policy
problems by specifying and quantifying their magnitude,
understanding their nature, and proposing policy approaches and
solutions. Policy makers have also been looking to analysts for
interaction and assistance. This volume brings together a
collection of the best available analyses of China's problems in
governing rapid growth, focusing on equity and institutions.
Contributions include perspectives from leading policy makers who
were intimately involved in the reform process, and from leading
academics in articles published in top peer reviewed journals.
