Description: "In this study, Dali Yang examines a wide range of governance reforms in the People's Republic of China, including administrative rationalization, divestiture of businesses operated by the military and the building of anticorruption mechanisms, to analyze how China's leaders have reformed existing institutions and constructed new ones to cope with unruly markets, curb corrupt practices, and bring about a regulated economic order." "For readers interested in either China's domestic development or in the country's foreign relations, this volume offers much food for thought."--BOOK JACKET.
