Integrating China: Transition into Global Economy

In this highly relevant collection, Peter Nolan argues that every effort of policy has to be directed towards avoiding this potentially catastrophic outcome. In their search for a way forward, China’s leaders are looking to the lessons from the country’s own past, as well as to those from other countries, in order to find a way to build a stable, cohesive and prosperous society. This effort is of vital importance, not only for China, but also for the whole world.

This timely collection of essays from Peter Nolan offers deep insight into the challenges faced in integrating China with the global political economy.
