Synopsis
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. These clearly written and insightful essays address the roots of China's crisis. The authors focus on institutional changes necessary for a spontaneous market order and point to the close relation between economic reform and political-constitutional reform. 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. The revolutionary changes now shaking the foundations of socialism and central planning in the Soviet Union and Eastern and Central Europe are sure to have an impact on China's future. Despite their seriousness, the events of Tiananmen Square may constitute only a temporary detour on the road toward a private market order. The essays in this volume help lay a rational framework for understanding China's present problems and for discussing the prospects for future reform.

    Excellent communication. I needed this item shipped immediately and the seller was able to do that. The packaging was exceptional and the bowl was just as described. I was on vacation and broke a bowl in the condo and needed to replace it before I left. The seller understood my situation and shipped this to me at the complex where I was vacationing. It was a great value and the expedited shipping was reasonable. Highly recommend this seller!!

    I had a great experience with this seller. They have many items to choose from. I ended up getting 2 of my crockpots back in service. The crockpot liners were very well packaged. Great communication and fast shipping. Both liners were in good shape and very clean as described. Both were good prices. I am very happy with my purchase.
