'Community Capitalism in China is a welcome addition to the body of research on economic reform in China. It is a beautiful example of the ways in which grounded research can both illuminate eye-opening stories about transforming economies and also advance our theoretical understanding of the forces driving that transformation. Professor Hou also boldly steps beyond the tired state-versus-market mindset, offering a fresh view of how China's economy works.' Doug Guthrie, George Washington University School of Business 'The decollectivization of agriculture is constantly trumpeted as a key to China's economic growth under the reforms. Nevertheless, many of today's richest villages have actually retained or recreated collective forms of ownership. Professor Hou untangles this puzzle with an insightful and revealing analysis of how 'community capitalism' can allow a collective economy to thrive in contemporary China and in the world market.' Robert P. Weller, Boston University 'This volume is a well-supported case study of China's 'transitory economy'. By carefully analyzing three highly industrialized villages in China, Dr Hou's well-articulated argument offers a radically original concept that contributes significantly to the understanding of the complexity and reality of Chinese society in the post-Mao era.' Xiao-huang Yin, Occidental College 'Based on extensive fieldwork in three Chinese villages, Xiaoshuo Hou shows how local party leaders and villagers successfully promoted economic development and raised living standards during the era of reform.' Robert K. Schaffer, Pacific Affairs '... a rich and comprehensive study of an original path of development introduced by some small-size communities in rural China in order to adapt to the new rules of state-controlled capitalism and the privatization of social welfare benefits.' Thomas Boutonnet, The China JournalMore details

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
