Description: "The emergence of China as a major world economy is of great importance to the global political economy and to international business. There has been a fair amount of research on the macro level of institutional reform but little detailed work on the grassroots level of entrepreneurship. This book addresses this gap by investigating how an economic system dominated by central plans, communist ideologies and suppressing bureaucracies could generate such energy from the bottom of society, fuelling the country's economic growth." "This book will appeal to an interdisciplinary readership in sociology, economics, business studies and Chinese and Asian Studies."--BOOK JACKET.
