Summary

Deng Xiaoping's rule has brought fundamental economic change to China. This book considers the impact of these years on China's physical environment, as well as on its people, industry, agriculture, and trade. The contributors assess the contribution of a decade of Chinese politics towards regional development, urbanization, the environment, and geopolitics. This accessible and much-needed survey sets its spatial and environmental themes in a historical, political and economic framework so crucial to an understanding of this country and the population which represents one-fifth of the world's inhabitants.
