| Summary, etc |
This book, a sequel to inequality and public policy in China (2008), examines the evolution of inequality in China from 2002 to 2007, a period when the new "harmonious society" Development strategy was adopted under Hu Jinnah and wen jiabao. It fills a gap in knowledge about the outcomes of this development strategy for equity and inequality. Drawing on original information collected from the recent two waves of nationwide household surveys conducted by the China household income project, this book provides a detailed overview of recent trends in income inequality and cutting-edge analysis of key factors underlying such trends. Topics covered include inequality in education, changes in co-ownership and the distribution of housing wealth, the evolution of the migrant lab or market, disparities between public and non-public sectors, patterns of work and non-work, gender and ethnic gaps, and the impacts of public policies such as reforms in taxation and social welfare programs. |
