Institutional Dynamics of China’s Great Transformation [EPUB ebook] 

This book examines the role of institutions in China’s recent large-scale economic, social and political transformation. Unlike existing literature, it offers perspectives from a variety of disciplines — including law, economics, politics, international relations and communication studies — to consider whether institutions form, evolve and change differently according to their historical or cultural environments and if their utilitarian functions can, and should be, observed, identified and measured in different ways.
