Poverty Reduction and Sustainable Development in Rural China
Reviews
“…A readable…and interesting set of perspectives on development, poverty, and the environment in western China...Overall, this volume will be useful for those seeking an overview on development and poverty in China, as well as China specialists. Given the enhanced quality of scholarship generated in China, western scholars—both China watchers and development experts alike—will benefit from the translation of more such research.”
"Most chapters provide a useful historical context and incisive analysis, and apply expert knowledge and fieldwork."
