The Growth of Market Relations in Post-Reform Rural China : A Micro-Analysis of Peasants, Migrants and Peasant Entrepeneurs Hardback
by Hiroshi Sato
Part of the Routledge Studies on the Chinese Economy series
Hardback
Description
This book, based on in-depth field research at the local level, assesses the different factors that are contributing to the transition to a market economy and the growth of networks in rural China.
It analyses the different socio-economic actors - peasant households, out-migrants, family businesses and peasant entrepreneurs, uses the key concept of markets as a nexus of social networks, and identifies three different kinds of 'social capital' - human capital, political capital/status, and network capital. This book demonstrates the importance of socio-political networks and highlights significant regional differences.
