Description

Explore the complex relationship between economic reform and social shifts in China with this academic study from Routledge. As China undergoes rapid economic change, the gap between wealthy and poor populations continues to grow. This book examines how urban poverty relates to housing issues and social transformations within large inland cities. Readers will gain a detailed assessment of recent government anti-poverty policies and their actual effectiveness. By placing the Chinese experience within the broader context of transitional economies, the text compares China to Central and Eastern European countries. This comparative approach highlights both the similarities and differences found across different regions undergoing economic transition. This work is essential for those studying urban development, sociology, and the social impacts of economic policy. It provides a deep look into how housing and poverty intersect during periods of major national change, offering a perspective based on long-term observation of these evolving urban landscapes.
