China - A New Stage of Development for an Emerging Superpower

About this book

Bringing together a collection of twenty major essays, this book offers a fresh perspective of evaluating the performance and achievements of China in the Hu–Wen era in terms of economic development, the establishment of a rudimentary social security system and her rising international status, etc.; the new opportunities and challenges facing China; and how will the likely successors Xi Jinping and Li Keqiang handle those opportunities and challenges. New policy programmes will also be discussed in greater detail.
