China : Overcoming Rural Poverty Paperback / softback

Part of the World Bank Country Study series

Paperback / softback

Description

'China: Overcoming Rural Poverty' assesses the state of poverty in China at the end of the 1990s.

The book also evaluates the most effective and efficient means of overcoming the remaining absolute poverty in the new decade.

It focuses on China's absolute poor who are increasingly concentrated in remote and mountainous townships and villages.

The report places considerable emphasis on the macroeconomic context, and finds that the trends in poverty reduction in the 1990s have been partly determined by larger macroeconomic trends.
