| Summary: | This volume is a selection of Chinese political scholar Xianglin Xus published works spanning nearly twenty years of research that explore and discuss the socioeconomic transition in China under state political reform. Contextualized within the decades following the 80s, the author analyzes patterns observed from empirical studies, and breaks down the underlining reasoning, conditions and functionalities behind the incremental reform policies pushed forward by the Party and government. The collection is broken up into four sections. The first provides a general framework and theoretical/historical introduction to social transition research in the case of China, the second section discusses the underpinning logic behind political reform in China and practical concerns, the third section follows with discussions on reform policy practices within China including application and trajectory and the final section concludes with an analysis of reform within state institutional infrastructure and policy innovation. |
