Economic Reform in China: Problems and Prospects
Edited by James A. Dorn and Wang Xi
About the Book
In this volume distinguished Chinese and Western scholars provide a detailed examination of the problems associated with China's transition to a market-oriented system. A variety of reform proposals, aimed at resolving the contradictions inherent in piecemeal reform, are discussed along with the chances for future liberalization.
Topics include the speed and degree of the transition, whether ownership reform must precede price reform, how inflation can be avoided, steps to depoliticize economic life, how to create an environment conducive to foreign trade and investment, and how to institute basic constitutional change and open China to the outside world. Published by the University of Chicago Press.
This book contains the papers presented at a Cato Institute conference on September 12-15, 1988, in Shanghai, China. Cosponsored with Fudan University.
