The establishment of Special Economic Zones (SEZs) marked a major
milestone in China's gradual market-oriented reform process, and
the developmental fluctuations of these zones offers an in-depth
understanding of the complexities and difficulties of reform. They
also provide critical insight into China's 30 years of economic and
social transformation. Now available in paperback, this book
examines China's eight SEZs in the order in which they were
established. Key coverage includes the background to the SEZs'
establishment and a detailed description of its development, while
the intricate reform policy-making process, achievements,
challenges, and difficulties - which will need to be faced for
future developments - are also explored. Practical and
well-structured, the book is packed with a wealth of information.
The panoramic overview and analysis provides not only a history of
reform and development of China's eight SEZs, but also an in-depth
sense of the waves of historic change and economic reform which
have for the last 30 years washed against China, Asia's ancient
colossus. The eight SEZs examined are: Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Shantou,
Xiamen, Hainan, Shanghai (Pudong New Area), Tianjin (Binhai New
Area), and Chengdu-Chongqing. (Series: Economic History in China)
