In Search of Chinas Development Model: Beyond the Beijing Consensus

This book examines the development model that has driven Chinas economic success and looks at how it differs from the Washington Consensus. Given Chinas peculiar matrix of a socialist party-state juxtaposed with economic internationalization and marketization, the contributors define the underlying dynamics and distinctive features of the economic, political, legal and social dimensions of Chinas development model, and examine the interrelations between these characteristics. They then go on to analyse to what extent and under what circumstances is Chinas development model sustainable, and to what degree is it readily applicable to other developing countries.
