China Review has been chosen by the American Public Libraries Association for inclusion in the list of books recommended to its members for acquisition. China Review 1997, the seventh volume of the series, is an expert survey of China's major sectors of interest and critically summarizes the development of the previous year in core chapters covering politics, the economy, and social change. The volume contains in-depth studies of political, social, and economic issues such as the death of leader Deng Xiaoping, the anticipated fifteenth Party Congress, cross-straits relations, the problem of state-owned enterprises, and foreign economic relations, all of which are of major concern to those who are interested in the development of the People's Republic. Additional studies describe seldom discussed aspects of Chinese society such as cultural changes and legal disputes.

Description
China has made great success in improving its foreign relations with other countries in 1998. Jiang Zemin's visit to the United States and Japan clearly showed that China would continually uphold its open-door policy and economic reform. It is significant to most economic analysts that China has still recorded 7.8% economic growth under the Asian financial crisis. China Review 1999, the ninth volume of this series, is an expert survey of China's major sectors of interest, which critically summarizes the development of the previous year in core chapters covering politics, the economy, and social change.This volume has several in-depth presentations on political and social-economic issues, such as the Sino-U.S. relations, Mainland-Taiwan relations, the economic performance of 1998 -- all major concerns to those interested in the development of the People's Republic. Additional studies describe rarely featured areas of Chinese society.

Description
China is entering a new era at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Economically, she has been able to come out of the Asian financial crisis of 1997-1998 seemingly unscathed. Internationally, she was finally paying more attention to her relations with the outside world. For instance, she has succeeded in mending fences with the United States after the Yugoslavia embassy bombing crisis by signing a bilateral trade agreement as a first step towards entering the World Trade Organization. Domestically, China is still trying to restructure its economic and social institutions, particularly now that more opening seems imminent. How to operate a modern society where trade, investment and technological know-how flourish while keeping a tight lid on the free flow of ideas remains a formidable task to the Communist Party leadership. Also, there is a new president to deal with in Taiwan although developments in the two newly added Special Administrative Regions of Hong Kong and Macau are on the right track. "China Review 2000" analyses critical political, economic, social and urban, as well as business issues related to changes during the past year, and tries to articulate the trends of development opportunities in the new century.
