Description: "After the 1978 economic reform, China's economic development has been on a fast track ever since. Later on, the successful accession into the WTO in 2001 accelerated China's economic transformation and made it more integrated with the world. Today, as the second-largest economy in the world, China has earned herself a leading role on the world stage beyond dispute. This book provides readers with answers to why and how China functions as a leader in the world economy. The book surveys China's economy in four parts--economic institutions, economic problems, important economic policies and selective economic analysis, especially including many hot issues like revaluation of the reminbi, China's high inflation rate and its relations with other emerging markets, etc."--Publisher's description.
