Abstract
|
:
|
"The growth of rural industry in China since 1978 has been explosive and has brought in its train a rate of poverty reduction without parallel across the developing world. Much of the existing literature explains this growth in terms of changes in economic policy. By means of a combination of privatization, liberalization and fiscal decentralization, it is argued, rural industrialization has taken off. This book takes issue with such claims. Using a newly constructed dataset covering China's 2,000 counties and complemented by a detailed econometric study of county-level industrialization in the provinces of Sichuan, Guangdong and Jiangsu, the author demonstrates the continuity which underlies the process of rural industrialization in China."--Jacket.
