Content:
When, how, and why did the state enterprise system of modern China take shape? The conventional argument is that China borrowed its economic system and development strategy wholesale from the Soviet Union in the 1950's. In an important new interpretation, Bian shows instead that the basic institutional arrangement of state-owned enterprise--bureaucratic governance, management and incentive mechanisms, and the provision of social services and welfare--developed in China during the war years 1937-1945.
Note:
Based on the author's thesis (doctoral--University of Washington) under the title: The Sino-Japanese War and the shaping of a new institutional pattern of state enterprise in China, 1935-1945. Both the scope of research and period covered have been expanded.
