This annual review looks into policy implementation and institutional innovation through the

lens of four topics. Selection of the topics is based on the understanding that good policy

performance relies on policy implementation, and that innovations in policy and policy

implementation rely on innovations in broader institutional environment. Previous research

has revealed that the target responsibility system (hereafter referred to as TRS) plays a

critical role in energy conservation and carbon reduction policy implementation in recent

years.

The year 2012 marked a threshold in China’s advances toward a

society on wheels. The growth in auto sales accelerated, while car

use environment worsened. A society on wheels in China is bound

to face many problems, such as the tension between growing

willingness toward car ownership among the public and the growing

costs associated with car use. While authorities in the automobile

industry expected fast growth, policies restricting both automobile

ownership and use were frequently introduced by city governments.

A society on wheels needs systematic and scientific management.

When people lack awareness of the rules of conduct appropriate for

such a society, car civilization is still at a low level. The general lack of

rules and the sense of rule-following also increase risks.

of International Strategy of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. China's surrounding

environment experienced tremendous changes in 2012. The sovereignty dispute over the

Diaoyu Islands marks the start of a special transitional phase. For China's relation with her

neighbors, the Diaoyu dispute is not only related to Sino-Japanese relations, but it also

involves China's relationship with the US, Claimant states, and other neighboring countries.

In this special transitional phase, China's surrounding environment will take on a number of

new characteristics.

2012 was a year in which philanthropy in China broke boundaries,

widened its horizons and started collaborating with a range of social

resources to promote domestic social reform. The most striking

feature of philanthropy in China during 2012 was the transformation

of a web-based micro-blog social movement from one that was

initially concerned with social assistance and social accountability

toward citizen, freedom of association and social fairness.

In comparison with 2011, 2012 was characterized by a greater

awareness of freedom and independent resolve among citizens,

and freedom of association and citizen autonomy have become

core elements in the cultivation and further development of a

philanthropic society. With respect to social ethos, a prevalence of

criticism and complaint was replaced by increases in self-motivated

actions. This provides fertile ground for the spontaneous and gradual

formation of public choices by groups. Good policy tidings from

meetings of the National People's Congress and the National People's

Consultative Conference forecast 2013 as a year of burgeoning

growth for different civil society groups and social organizations.

During the last decade, there was little progress in China in the transformation of its urban

growth model. Meanwhile, some new problems of urban diseases began to emerge, such

as soaring housing prices, worsening urban environment and increasing social problems.

Governments of Chinese cities urgently need to seek ways of achieving sustainable

development and find new paths toward urbanization. This annual report has the theme of

"A New Benchmark: Constructing the Ideal city with Sustainable Competitiveness". It is an

exploration into the future development directions for cities in China.

As China's only Blue Book on the Sports Industry, the Report is based on a number of

insightful and interesting surveys over the last few years and uses a range of carefully

selected research methodologies. The research was carried out across a number of cities

and focused on companies, sports events and event venues, and it aimed at assessing the

business models, industry rules, and current business trends. Following the first Blue Book of

Sports, this Report provides insightful analyses which focus on a number of sectors such as

sports events, fitness, leisure centers, sports merchandise and sports venues.

The economic changes in 2012 indicated that the economies of BRICS countries are much

weaker than the economies of the United States and Japan. In 2012, both the United

States and Japanese economies returned to steady growth, demonstrating the strength

of their resistance to external forces. Therefore, the lack of diversity in sources of growth,

slow growth model transformation, and weak innovation capacity and international

competitiveness are the fundamental reasons for the decline of economic growth in BRICS

countries.

This book is a report written by experts and scholars studying the economic development

of China’s western region and based on research organized by Centre for Studies of China

Western Economic Development of Northwest University. The Book has been recognized as

a major landmark in philosophy and the social sciences by the Ministry of Education during

the “10th Five-Year Plan” period and published once a year since 2005.

Development in China’s western region has entered a new period in which people’s

livelihood takes center stage, and this is taking place at a time when the country is entering a

historic phase in its progress toward a moderately prosperous society.

For a comprehensive understanding of political participation among Chinese citizens, it's

necessary to carry out large-scale survey on subjects such as election participation, policy

participation and contact participation. Furthermore, there is also the need to analyze

whether political participation has an impact on citizens' political identification. This book

reports findings from a 2012 survey on Chinese citizens' political participation and political

identification.

Drawing on the latest development of the global economy, this book examines the state

of China’s economic development and defines the direction for its structural adjustment,

in an effort to provide theoretical guidance over the promotion of sustained and balanced

growth of the Chinese economy.

This book systematically reviews the related theories, latest progress and international

experiences in the national accounting system and balance sheets and analyzes future risks

for China. While forecasting the scope and time of occurrence for these risks, monographic

studies in this book show that the gap in pension funds, overall healthcare expenditure,

local debts and the cost of environmental protection will contribute greatly toward fiscal

deficit and debt, thereby exerting pressure on the government. Topics covered by the other

chapters in the book include the risks China faces in its external balance sheets; new ways of

understanding issues such as RMB internationalization, and opening-up of capital accounts,

and detailed estimates for state-owned assets.

Boyuan Library - Modernity and Transformation of Chinese Society Series During China’s modernization in the past century, it has been of vital importance to

establish modern values. The transformation will directly influence, or even decide

the establishment of the modern system of nation-state, and economic transition

and social transformation should be implemented at the same pace. When discussing

China’s march toward modernity, the question “how to choose the path and model

of modernity that would suit China’s current situation and under current constraints”

should be answered. To that end, Boyuan Foundation compiled the “Modernity and

Transformation of Chinese Society” series.

In brief but clear language, this book provides a systematic overview of the history of

contemporary China. The author contends that from the perspectives of the Communist

Party of China’s founding strategies, choice of development model and basic policies for the

nation, China’s experience with socialism is a journey that began with the experiment in new

democracy, and followed by a series of historical choices, including those to copy the Soviet

model, to catch-up with more powerful countries, to continue with the revolution and to

engage in reform and opening-up. In conclusion, the author claims that the path of reform

and opening-up is the only one that will lead China to national revival.

Five Decisions on the Road to Socialism with Chinese Characteristics

Taking the “fork in the road to long-term development” as the starting point, the book is an

attempt to search for and identify future sources of growth for the Chinese economy. The

analyses cover topics including the development of the dual economy, Lewisian Turning

Point, demographic dividend, an aging society that is not yet wealthy, middle-income

trap, total factor productivity and the accumulation of human capital, and others. The

author suggests that an effective response to these problems calls for policy-engineering

at the highest level, integrated and coordinated reform measures, and an active role for

government function transformation. The goal is to change government function from

directly intervening in economic activities to creating a sound macroeconomic environment

through policies and taking up more responsibilities in social management and basic public

service provision.

The authors have brought to bear their personal experiences and knowledge for analyzing

problems associated with the “strategic mutual suspicion” between China and the US. The

authors hope that an honest account of the substance of this mutual suspicion can help

the leaders of both countries understand better the background of the other’s policies and

how their own respective goals can best be achieved. The solid foundation for China-US

strategic cooperation will be damaged and may even lead to confrontation between the

two countries if mutual suspicion becomes the norm. Therefore, to some extent, the future

course for China-US relations will depend on how each country reflects on its own problems

and understands those of the other. Increasing cooperation and reducing mutual suspicion

constitute a suboptimal but nonetheless realistic choice.

Taking modernization as the basic theme, this book offers a historical overview of modern

China. Among other things, the author offers his understanding of China’s dynastic

succession and the birth of the republic, and presents a new view on major events and

important historical figures. The author notes that while the opportunity for transition from

a traditional to a modern society presented itself a number of times in China during recent

times, regrettably, the country failed to take advantage of them under the heavy burdens of

history.

SOCIOLOGY

The concept of “culture” has been the subject of wide attention from all research fields in

the social sciences. In the field of psychology, scholars have proposed a number of models

for explaining the function of culture, including those of cultural values, self-construal,

cognitive style, social beliefs and others. These theories contribute greatly toward not only

the construction of cultural theories, but also other related fields, such as cultural relations,

organizational behavior, occupational development and management. This book reviews

some of the latest development in trans-cultural psychology studies, and discusses problems

such as cultural differences and group attitude, relationship between individual-organization

cultural matching and work attitude, culture and occupational decision-making style, and

points out the direction for further research.

Individual-Culture Matching, Intergroup Attitude and Organizational Behavior

Social construction is an arduous task and it goes beyond quality of life improvement

projects and social management. This book discusses nine dimensions to social construction,

and focuses on improving social institution reform and optimizing and adjusting social

structure. The author argues that there can be no other way of achieving coordinated social

and economic development than through social system reform, restoring the balance among

the nation, the market and the society, correcting the lopsided situation of “strong economy

and weak society”, and continuing to adjust and optimize the fundamentally stratified social

structure.

SOCIOLOGY

There has been considerable research about the establishment of household registration

system in early years of the PRC and about the various constraints faced by migrant workers

in the 1980’s to 1990’s. There are, however, by contrast far fewer studies about the shift in

government policies in recent years towards greater inclusiveness for rural migrant workers.

Therefore, one of the book’s purposes is to promote a better understanding of China’s

migrant worker policies among both scholars and policy-makers through an investigation of

evolution of migrant worker policies since the start of the current century, an examination of

the reasons behind them and of how effective they have been.

How families change through time is a classical theme in the sociology of family. How

have China’s urban families changed during the past 30 years and since China’s reform and

opening-up policies began, and with the advancement of industrialization and urbanization?

What kind of relation exists between families and social transformation? What role do

traditional and modern factors play in its process? Do different models of change prevail in

different cities at varying levels of development?

In recent years, China’s environmental pollution problems have increasingly taken on

the trends of domestic colonization and ruralization. As the environment in rural areas

deteriorates, the number of pollution-related disputes, mass incidents and media reports

has increased accordingly. The book discusses the root causes of environmental pollution

from the perspectives of social change and social transformation, gives an account of the

social background to, the history and current situation of farmers’ protests, and constructs

a preliminary descriptive typology for the subject.The book singles out the lead poisoning

case that took place in a certain Town “N” in northern Jiangsu province in 2008 for a closer

examination.

The Basis of SurvivalThe Sociological Characteristics of Agriculture and the Responsibilities of Government

This book aims to uncover the social significance of agriculture through an examination

of the relation among agriculture, farmers and government. Its theoretical meaning lies

in its effort toward identifying the basic elements to and framework for the sociology of

agriculture, filling in the knowledge gaps in this area, enhancing the explanatory power of

sociological explanations, and generating among the general public greater interests in and

concern for agriculture, farmers and the countryside.

This book is about the different approaches for improving the sense

of happiness and fulfillment among China’s rural population, an issue

whose importance is on a par with that of increasing their income.

The authors tackle the issue from different perspectives, including

peasants’ conceptualization of the meaning of life, how the meaning

of “part of the family” has changed over time, time-specific features

of the micro-structure of rural society, and the relations among social

network, ‘riffraff”, the survival skills of religious believers, extension

of and limits to either family- or location-based mutual support

mechanism effective in rural China, the mutual influence between

the bureaucratic system and the substratum of the society, and the

paths and strategies for society-building in rural China.

This book presents main findings from a research project, supported by

the National Social Sciences Fund, on strategic models for promoting

diversified urbanization in China. Professor Li Qiang from Tsinghua

University is the lead investigator for the project. As its title suggests,

the book encompasses discussion of two issues: one is China’s

diversified urbanization strategy, the other the model for advancing

that goal. The authors argue that urbanizing farmers and migrant

workers should be the Chinese government’s top priority in its pursuit

of urbanization. To that end, the authors propose large investment in

county-level medium-sized cities, county-wide economic development,

and urban integration for rural residents in counties. These should be

the main forms taken by migration of rural population into cities.

Professor Li Qiang is Dean of the School of Humanities and Social

Sciences of Tsinghua University, and Vice President of Chinese

Sociological Association and Advisor to the Committee on Social

Sciences of the Ministry of Education, the National Committee on

Information, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Health, and

the Beijing Municipal Government. His main research interests include

social stratification and mobility, urban sociology, applied sociology,

and social structure and social issues.

The book features articles by more than twenty renowned Chinese

scholars, among them Nobel laureates in economics, Chinese Academy

of Engineering academicians, and foreign members of the British Royal

Society, the science academies of a number of developing countries and

the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences. Drawing on the

newest available data, including those from the 2010 census, and using

accessible language, the contributors present their argument for why

timely adjustments to China’s existing population policies will do much

toward helping the country achieve balanced growth in both population

and economy, and realize the Chinese Dream. Otherwise, they argue, the

country faces workforce depletion, population aging, gender imbalance,

precipitous rise in the number of lifelong bachelors, weakened national

defense due to the large percentage of single children in the military

service, and the growing number of high-risk one-child families and elderly

people who have survived their only children. All these will condemn the

Chinese Dream to empty talk.

“What kind of democracy do the Chinese people want?” This is the book’s central question.

The author bases his search for an answer on findings from a nation-wide random survey,

an analysis of China’s ethically loaded political culture, and a descriptive account of how

differences in education and age affect people’s sense of politics, attitude toward political

participation and political literacy. Moreover, the author compares recent survey findings

with both those from a similar survey in 1988 and those reported his 1994 book titled

Chinese Homo Politicus. The comparison reveals notable shifts in China’s political culture

over the last two decades.

This book is one of the tools the Low Carbon-City in China (LCCC) program, a China-

Switzerland collaboration, uses to help Chinese cities in their low-carbon development. It

presents a reconstructed Chinese low-carbon city evaluation index system by drawing upon

the successful experience of European Energy Award (EEA) and Swiss Energy City program

but also tailored to the conditions on the ground in China. This index system consists of

three parts: a list of indicators, a low-carbon city evaluation report, and urban action plans.

The list of indicators include two index systems: one for key indicators (15 of them across 5

dimensions including low-carbon economy, low-carbon energy, low-carbon infrastructure,

low-carbon environment and low-carbon traffic) and the other for supporting ones (52

indicators across 4 dimensions including city management, green economy, green building

and low-carbon transport).

Judicial transparency is the foundation to judicial justice and protects

the rule of law. In recent years, as informatization has developed

rapidly, courts in every country are increasingly adopting new tools

such as the internet to promote judicial transparency. China’s judiciary

is also moving forward by trial and error, and becoming more open

and transparent. To further China’s progress in judicial transparency,

researchers from the Institute of Law of Chinese Academy of Social

Sciences (CASS) have investigated the situation in some other

countries and regions with respect to judicial transparency, analyzed

what and how they have done in this area, extracted lessons from

their experiences that may be helpful to China, and examined the

progress and problems in mainland China’s judiciary. Not very many

books have been able to do what this book does, namely, combining

text and graphics in its presentation of international experiences

in judicial transparency on one hand, and offering on the other an

empirical analysis of China’s current state in this area.

This book studies the problems transitional countries experience in financial liberalization

from the perspective of monetary and financial reform, by looking specifically at China,

Russia and central and eastern European countries. The book combines historical and logical

methods, normative and empirical analyses, comparative and case studies. It provides a

macroscopic monetary, deposits and foreign currency analytical framework, and elaborates

the rationality and endogeneity of deepening financial development in transitional

economies from the macroscopic monetary and finance perspective. Finally, the author

summarizes the lessons China can learn from transitional countries’ experience in financial

liberalization.

This book is a compilation of selections from the proposals submitted by the author, a

Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) delegate, over a ten-year period.

Most of the proposals included in the volume deal with the development and management

of social organizations and cover a range of topics, including social issues, quality of life

improvement issues and public policy issues. Some of these proposals proved to be not only

sound but also impactful, including those for eliminating discrimination against hepatitis B

carriers, for dual regulatory system reform, for qualified relaxation of the one-child policy,

and for requiring greater transparency for charitable organizations. The selections are

ordered by year and each one is followed by the author’s own comments, which reflect his

journey from a scholar in public management to a policy advisor.

China’s continual economic growth and rapid rise in the international arena over the more

than thirty years since the beginning of reform and opening-up have triggered much heated

discussions and debate among Chinese scholars. China’s political development has received

the most attention. Contributors to the book include 24 well-known politicians and China

watchers from both China and the United States. The book marks the first time scholars

from these two countries built up a dialogue about political issues in modern China. To some

extent, the book represents the highest level of Chinese and American scholarship on this

subject, and is as such highly authoritative.

China’s Political DevelopmentFrom the View of American and Chinese Scholars

As a necessary means for achieving greater government transparency, e-governance has

been all the ragein recent years. This is a timely review of China’s experience in this area..

The publication of this book is significant in two ways: on one hand, it is an important

source of reference insofar as it covers the basic situation, development trend and current

problems of Chinese e-governance, on the other hand, the commentaries in the book enrich

existing theories and policies on this subject insofar as they are appropriate to the reality of

administrative practices in our country.

This book is an attempt to understand the deep relations between the discourse and the

political economy of Hong Kong’s media through an investigation of the role Hong Kong’s

identity plays in the construction of media discourse in political communications. Such an

understanding may shed important light on the mechanisms by which Hong Kong’s media

participate in identity politics. In the author’s view, there have been significant changes in

Hong Kong’s identity over the past several decades. All these changes have been reactions

to broad shifts in politics, economics and culture, all of which having been covered and

processed in the Hong Kong media.

of democratic institutions in such a society and the unique role this space can play in conflict

Since the beginning of the 21st century, “governance” has become not only a catchword

in the social sciences in China, but also an analytic tool for improving government reform,

strengthening the non-governmental sector and promoting harmonious social development.

This book presents systematic analysis of both theory and practice of governance by

focusing on its emergence and development at home and aboard, reflects on China’s current

experience in reform and discusses adapting the theory of governance to China’s conditions.

History shows that the most prominent external challenge for any great nations on the

rise is whether it can mitigate the difficulties attendant to this process. As China’s strength

and status have continued to grow since the mid- 1990s, relieving strategic pressure and

overcoming the growing pains of a nation on the rise have become top priorities for the

country. Through theoretical reflections and empirical analyses, the book examines China’s

efforts toward these goals over the last 10 years, provides an evaluation of the country’s

gains and losses, and tries to outline a theoretical framework for understanding the national

strategies suitable for a rising China. The book will contribute greatly toward theories about

national rise by sharing lessons from China’s experience.

The history of China’s foreign aid goes back over 60 years. A pillar for its international

strategies, China’s foreign aid has played an important role in the country’s support for the

world’s less powerful nations in their fight against imperialism and colonialism, and for

former colonies to achieve independence, economic development, and in deepening the

mutually beneficial relations between China and other developing countries. All these have

made for foreign aid with a set of distinctly Chinese national characteristics. The increasing

scale of China’s foreign aid and other forms of foreign assistance in recent years attendant

to China’s rapid economic growth has drawn the world’s attention. The book, rich in case

studies, is an historical and geographical examination of China’s foreign aid practice from the

points of view of its underlying philosophy, principles, policies and models of execution.

The regional political environment has grown increasingly complex during China’s peaceful

rise. At the same time, as economic and cultural exchanges within the region continue

to deepen, China’s national image among neighboring countries has also been changing.

How do these countries see China? How did their perceptions of China come to be? What

are their main features? And how will they likely change in the future? What will be the

impact of neighboring countries’ perceptions of China in the next 10 years? And how should

the Chinese government and the Chinese people build a positive image of the country?

Discussion of these questions will be a valuable source of reference for foreign-policy makers

and for defining the Chinese culture “going global” strategy.

The purpose of this book is to introduce to China international

experiences and lessons in food security, and the contributions have

benefited greatly from the results of FAO’s multidisciplinary studies.

The book systematically reviews issues related to agriculture, fishery,

forestry, livestock and natural resource industries, and provides

analyses of food security and nutrition matters and reflections

on some of the most hotly debated issues today in these areas.

Although the views expressed in this book do not necessarily

represent the FAO’s position, the book will provide an international

perspective for Chinese readers, and a valuable source of information

for China’s policy-makers, especially as the country tries to transform

its agriculture and take up its responsibility as an emerging world

leader.

To evaluate and to learn from the abolition of the imperial examination system, one of

the most significant changes in modern China, we must have a comprehensive and clear

knowledge of the relevant historical facts, especially the policy-making process, the meaning

and implications of changes to the system, the handling of the aftermath, the feelings of

all parties involved and the impact on the society at large. The results of this research have

rectified some past misunderstanding about this subject, and helped to deepen appreciation

for the relation between the abolition of the imperial examination system and modern

society and are thus of considerable academic value.

As one of the main forms of educational exchange, studying abroad has become not only an

important part of school education but also a key step for individuals trying to improve their

own repertoire of knowledge and understanding. This book, written by several historians,

including Zhang Kaiyuan from Huazhong Normal University, is an empirical academic work

summarizing the history of studying abroad among modern Chinese. The focus on the

specific political, economic, educational, cultural and diplomatic contexts of the different

time periods that are covered helps give the account a sense of authenticity, history, depth

and authoritativeness.

ECONOMICS AND FINANCE

Released by the National Academy of Economic Strategy Chinese

Academy of Social Sciences (CASS), this research report studies

and presents developments in the construction of public finance in

China. The report’s authors constructed an evaluation index system

for public finance by combining theory and practice, focusing on

socialism with Chinese characteristics, and carefully considering the

intrinsic needs of public finance. The system is then used for follow-

up analysis and systematic evaluation of the current state of China’s

public finance construction. For this report, the researchers have

used professional survey companies and relied on meticulously-

designed and a comprehensive evaluation index system. Therefore,

the survey results and theoretical conclusions are sound, credible and

authoritative. The book tries to serve two purposes: guiding China’s

public finance construction efforts by marking the right direction for

it, and summarizing China’s progress and achievements in this area.

The book’s publication is a landmark in the country’s public finance

construction at a strategically critical time, and will be of great value in

both theoretical and practical terms.

This book probes the meaning of “the Chinese Dream” from four aspects, interpreting it

as “a mantra that unites the nation”, “a phrase that passes on legacy”, “an interrogation

that calls for a century-long investigation”, and “a dream that leads us into the future”. This

book examines how the Communist Party of China united all the citizens and led them in

the search for the correct way to realize the “Chinese Dream”, pays special attention to the

inherent logic of the road to socialism with Chinese Characteristics and the “Chinese Dream”,

and showcases, against a global background, the choice the Chinese have made in their

development path the prospect for national rejuvenation.

City management is a hot topic of multidisciplinary research. This book places city

management within the context of the urbanization process, reviews the whole evolutionary

course of city management models both in China and the west, and identifies objective

patterns in this process insofar as it relates to urbanization. The author offers an in-

depth study of city management in China in areas including land, city planning, economy,

population, environment, community and so on by drawing on the actual experiences of

Chinese cities.

At present, China’s outbound investment is still in its early stages.

China faces many difficulties in its efforts to grow its outbound

investment further, and it behooves the government to support it

with national policies that are comprehensive in scope. On the basis

of research and investigation of both the past and present of China’s

outbound investment, the authors argues that the country should

capitalize on its advantages and improve both systemic support for

outbound investment and Chinese enterprises’ going global from a

variety of perspectives.

Economy Monthly Talk is a monthly economics seminar hosted by the China Center for

International Economic Exchanges (CCIEE) with support from China National Radio. Themes

of the seminar’s twelve 2012 sessions included: monetary reforms, future prospects for

and possible solutions to the European debt crisis, reform and development of the stock

market, the US economy and economic policies, price trends for bulk commodities and

their impact, promoting green, circular and low-carbon development, prospects for and

the impact of the American “Financial Cliff”. This book is a collection of some of the most

important discussions among and valuable works by the more than thirty experts, scholars,

entrepreneurs and officials, both Chinese and international, who participated in the

Economy Monthly Talk seminars in 2012.

This book is made of two introductory chapters and four monographs. The first two

monographs are written by Chinese scholars, and provide an analysis of China’s outbound

investment in Europe, especially in Italy. The last two contributions are by foreign scholars

and they analyze European, especially Italian foreign direct investment in China. These

studies show the differences between Chinese and European scholars both in terms of their

perspectives and in the views they hold. The book will be an invaluable source of reference

for researchers on this subject.

This book focuses on the problems related to rebalancing China’s

economy and sustainable development. The book has two parts: in

the first the author discusses issues of inequality under the broad

framework of macroeconomics, and depicts the need to rebalance the

economy as the search for endogenous growth. Problems associated

with the current-account surpluses and floating exchange rates are

examined from the point of view of saving and investment, and the

question is asked whether China’s outbound direct investment (ODI)

can play a positive role in economic rebalancing by improving the

quality of growth. In the second part of the book the author offers

some very interesting and useful information on the spatial distribution

patterns of inequality, resettlement policies, rural population and inter-

generational mobility, among others. Subjects of research include the

spatial distribution of income inequality, level of schooling among the

urban, rural, and migrant populations and across different generations,

pension and other forms of retirement incomes in an aging society,

China’s efforts toward moving up the global product value chain and

becoming an internationally competitive innovation hub, China’s pursuit

of energy source and security, and of water supply that is adequate both

qualitatively and quantitatively.

In discussion of the reasons for the sub-prime mortgage crisis, shadow banking, a “new

favorite” in the financial market, has received much research attention. The author posed

the question of whether the shadow banking system amounts to the return of free banking.

This book seeks to answer this question, by closely examining both history and current

reality from the perspective of monetary theories, and analyzing how the shadow banking

system creates credit and works at the macro level. The author proposes supervision and

management strategies for lender of last resort and information-based private monetary

management, and offers insightful judgment on the future trends of China’s shadow banking

system and financial innovations.

Over the past 30 years, demographic changes, economic reforms and WTO membership,

individually or in combination, have helped China achieve a long period of unfettered

economic growth. However, as the “dividends” of these structural factors began to fade,

China’s existing growth cycle is likely to experience some fundamental changes going

forward. As this happens, the economic doctrines that had provided useful insights on how

the economy worked in the past will become less relevant. Thus the main objective of this

book is to develop a new framework for analyzing the Chinese economy. Based on this

framework, we examine in various chapters some important economic issues and challenges.

Hopefully, we could help readers identify the path of China’s economic rebalancing.
