For these reasons, those with an interest in income distribution in general and Chinasdevelopment in particular, will find this volume essential reading.Rapidly rising inequality in China has contributed to the sluggishness of domestic demand and emerging poverty. It has thus exerted considerable pressure for commodity exports and represents a root cause of increased trade disputes. These have profound ramifications for the US, EU, and other economies, and the international business community. Consequently, economists and sociologists, among others, areincreasingly focused upon inequality and poverty issues in China and relevant policy implications.This volume, arising from a two-year UNU-WIDER project, addresses issues thatinclude the inequality-growth relationship, regional/personal variation in incomes and human well-being such as education, the determinants of inequality and poverty or their changes, gaps in innovation capability, and the role played by Chinas development strategies in affecting inequality.
