Description: Chinese Models of DevelopmentGlobal, Local, and Comparative Perspectives Author(s): Tse-Kang Leng, Yu-Shan Wu, Rumi Aoyama, Yun-han Chu, Szu-chien Hsu, Xiaoming Huang, David C. Kang, Tse-Kang Leng, Allen C. Lynch, Herman Schwartz Format: Hardback Publisher: Lexington Books, United States Imprint: Lexington Books ISBN-13: 9780739192269, 978-0739192269 Synopsis Discussion of the "Chinese Model" abounds with the rise of China. This volume analyzes the Chinese case in a theoretical framework, provides an evolutionary perspective, and compares it with other models of development. Instead of focusing on one specific case, the book's contributors shed light on the application of theories of international relations, comparative politics, and development studies to the topic under deliberation. This book reflects that the "uniqueness" of the Chinese model should also be put in an historical and evolutionary context. It also provides insights into comparisons with other models of development, such as the East Asian model and experiences of the former Soviet Union. The authors in the book argue that while globalization constrains state power, it may also open new windows of accommodation and adjustments. Linkages between the domestic dynamics of development and external forces of change become pertinent in understanding the Chinese models of development.
