China is indisputably one of the most dynamic economic regions in
the world; however the character, nature and extent of its market
economy status remains in question. This book provides an empirical
analysis of many aspects of the developing market economy
including: government reform; the marketization of enterprises;
land transactions; capital transactions and finance; the market
determination of wage rates; the development of intermediary
organizations; and the improvement in the economy's legal
framework. China's economic growth has also brought conflict with
both the EU and the US. This book examines the contentious debates
such as: the extent of renminbi convertibility; the independence of
the financial sector; the freedom of labour in wage-rate
bargaining; the extent of foreign investment; the extent of
government ownership of enterprises; the protection of property
rights; and the development of company law and of corporate
governance.
This book approaches Green Civilization based on the background of
international initiative on sustainable development and in-depth
analyzes the valuable era consensus reached by 193 countries on the
UN Sustainable Development 2030 Agenda. The Author expounds own
point of view to debate the well-known book Clash of Civilizations
by the method of contradictory debate dialectically. In addition,
it demonstrates the development of Human Green Civilization
systematically by Multi-dimensional history material of human
civilization. This book covers the academic, political, and
business in the world. It is suitable for scholars, researchers,
students and university degree readers for economics,
eco-environment, political science, sociology and anthropology. It
aims at promoting the realization of the UN 2030 Agenda for
Sustainable Development, at promoting the dialogue between the East
and the West, working for facilitating peace for mankind and
spreading the advanced concept of sustainable human development to
the people of all countries.

This book summarizes the recent advances in applications of starch
in state-of-the-art drug carriers (hydrogel, micro- and
nano-particulate carriers) with stimulus-responsive and
target-specific properties. It also highlights the role of starch
and its derivatives in transmucosal administration to improve the
bioavailability of drugs. Further, it outlines the principles of
effective, advanced, starch-based drug delivery systems and
illustrates how these principles are key to the development of
future drug delivery strategies. This interesting reference
resource is useful for students, researchers and engineers in the
fields of carbohydrate chemistry, polymer sciences and drug
delivery.
The report was launched during China’s Twelfth Five-year Period
(2011-2015). After revising the measurement system of the Green
Development Index 2011, the report measures the green development
level of 30 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions as
well as 38 large and medium-sized cities in China. A Public
Satisfaction Survey of the Urban Residents is first introduced into
the report. Both the province and the city Green Development Index
systems consist of three parts, the green degree of economic
growth, the carrying potential of natural resources and
environment, and the support degree of government policies. The
three parts reflect the production and resource usage efficiency,
the situation of environment and resources protection and
pollutants emission, and government’s related investment and
management respectively. The China Green Development Index Report
2012 has the comprehensive evaluation of the green economy
development in China and its importance to China’s rational
development and switch in economic development model.
This exhaustive survey assesses the performance of the United
Nations and its member states in all key areas, at the same time as
laying down a road map for sustainable development in the future.
Deploying the Human Green Development Index as a new metric for an
era in which human survival is intimately dependent on the
viability of the Earth as a clean and sustainable habitat, the
report showcases a vast array of data, including HGDI indicators
for more than 120 nations. It provides a detailed and comparative
rationale for the selection of data for the 12 goals and 54 HGDI
targets, which cover human and global needs into the future. The
index measures 12 Sustainable Development Goals, based on but also
extending the eight Millennium Development Goals defined in 2000.
The SDGs, proposed by a high-level UN panel, will supersede MDGs in
2015. They focus on ending poverty, achieving gender equality,
providing quality education for all, helping people live healthy
lives, securing sustainable energy use, and creating jobs offering
sustainable livelihoods. They also work towards equitable growth,
stable and peaceful societies, greater efficiency in governance,
and closer international cooperation. With indicators covering
everything from air particulates to percentage of threatened animal
species in a nation’s total, and informed by the latest research
(with inequality-adjusted metrics for amenities such as education
and healthcare), this comprehensive study offers readers not only a
wealth of valuable core data, but also a well-argued rationale for
using the HGDI. In today’s world, we cannot view our development
as being distinct from, and unaffected by, that of the Earth we
inhabit, or that of our planetary cohabitees.
With the rapid growth of global industrialization, there has been
substantial consumption of fossil fuels such as coal, petroleum,
and natural gas along with growing carbon dioxide emissions.
Unprecedented environmental and ecological crisis clouded the
world. Fortunately, the Climate Conference in Copenhagen signaled
hope amid the sluggish global economic recovery. Countries
worldwide have been braced for developing their scientific and
industrial strategies in the era of post financial crisis with a
green and low-carbon philosophy. In 2008, the UN unveiled a plan
for green politics and green economy, which is well-received and
carried out by countries worldwide. China's 30-year rapid economic
development has attracted worldwide attention. However, how to
develop in a sustainable manner when faced with acute
contradictions between economic growth, resources and environment
has posed great challenges to China. Therefore, it is of great
significance for us to speed up the study of green development and
find a rational growth model. This study is completed by Prof. Li
Xiaoxi and the dedication of other leading thinkers in economics,
management, environment and resources together with the help of
China Economic Monitoring and Analysis Center (CEMA).

In recent years, a financial crisis not encountered for almost half
a century broke out globally, deeply affecting the economy of
China. This book covers topics in relation to the financial crisis
in China, such as how the financial crisis intensifies discussion
on "the China Model", the comprehensive interpretation on the
scale, structure and effects of the 4 trillion economic stimulus
plan and the development of rural finance in China under
circumstances of world-wide financial upheaval.
