Fujian

China's large economy consists of many distinct, interactive economic regions, each with its own natural man-made characteristics, opportunities, and challenges. These distinctions have been reinforced by the economic decentralization, the expansion of China's open-door policy, and the acceleration of the post-Mao economic reforms. This series focuses on a single province in China, and examines its history, government, geography, human resources, and economic development. This second volume describes Fujian Province, its Special Economic Zones of Xiamen, and its distinctive relationship with Taiwan.
