Institutions and Economic Growth in Asia
Author: Flora Huang
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 131551611X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
This book explores the role of institutions in economic growth, looking in particular at specific Asian countries and at particular cities within those countries. It considers a wide range of factors besides institutions, including the law, cultural factors and overall government arrangements. The differences between the countries studied are highlighted, and the impact of these differences assessed: the impact of English common law on arrangements in Hong Kong, Singapore and Malaysia; sharia law in Malaysia; the differing lengths of time of colonial rule; the extent to which Chinese family businesses control an economy. Also studied are the degree to which the law is effectively applied, and a range of other social, economic and cultural factors. The book’s conclusions as to which factors have the greatest impact will be of considerable interest to economists of Asia and those interested in economic growth more widely.

A Historical Survey of the Economic Development of Mainland China, 1949-1962
Author: Mandhatasinh A. Chauhan
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
Chinese agriculture differs from the Western agriculture in the development and utilization of agricultural science on the fields. China has always been an agricultural country, but she failed to improve in techniques of cultivation as the time passed by. The land, prior to the Communist take-over, was owned and cultivated by individuals and the produce was sold in a free-market. Unfortunately, the Chinese government, prior to 1949, failed to bring about adequate agricultural reforms and implement economic development measures. As a result an overwhelming proportion of the population of China is occupied on the land, the supply of which is fixed, and the capital resources employed are small, the per capita output and income of China are low. With the vast majority of the population in agriculture and low per capita output, the national income of the country is also low. Thus, China is classified as an underdeveloped nation. Arising from the same problem of overpopulation, the family land was subdivided and fragmented into economically inefficient units before the Communist take-over.

Economic Convergence in Greater China
Author: Chun Kwok Lei
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134077173
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 407
Book Description
Although China's economy has grown very rapidly in recent decades, there are still very large differences between the economy of mainland China and the economies of Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. For example, per capita income in Hong Kong is many, many times higher than per capita income in mainland China. This book considers the degree to which economic convergence between mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan has occurred, and the prospects for increased convergence in the future. It considers economic integration between China and its two Special Administrative Regions (SARS), emphasising the large volume of capital flows and exports, especially from Hong Kong into China, and showing that the economies are highly integrated, despites their differences. It examines income convergence, and changes in productivity, using the same measures for both China and the two SARS, unlike most existing studies. It explores how economic reforms have been crucial to increasing convergence so far, and will continue to be in the future, and concludes by discussing the implications for policy of encouraging increased convergence.
