About the eBook

This unique book explores the varied perspectives on contemporary processes of rural transformation and policy intervention in China. The expert contributors combine a critical review of current theoretical viewpoints and global debates with a series of case studies that document the specificities of China?s pathways to change. Central issues focus on the dynamics of state?peasant encounters; the diversification of labour and livelihoods; out-migration and the blurring of rural and urban scenarios; the significance of issues of ?value? and ?capital? and their gender implications; land ownership and sustainable resource management; struggles between administrative cadres and local actors; and the dilemmas of ?participatory? development.Rural Transformations and Development ? China in Context will prove a fascinating and stimulating read for academics and researchers in the areas of Asian studies, development and agriculture, and public policy.
