1 total work
This is a comprehensive, interpretative economic history of China since 1949, and presents the dramatic changes in China's approach to economic organization and development in a historical context. The author analyses the emergence of the Maoist assault on Soviet-type central planning - its accomplishments, failures, and ultimate defeat - as well as examining in some detail the new policies that have come about in reaction to that story, exposing their own particular inner contradictions and uncertainties.
