Manager Empowerment in China Summary

Manager Empowerment in China: Political Implications of Rural Industrialisation in the Reform Era by Ray Yep

Institutional changes in rural China caused by the economic reforms of the post-Mao era have led to a new pattern of state-society interaction in the rural polity. Central to this is the spectacular rise of a group of managerial elites. Contrary to economic predictors, this has been accompanied by the development of an interdependence between these managers and the state. This book provides an analysis of the new state-society relationship and demonstrates the complexity and fluidity involved in institutional development and market transformation.

Manager Empowerment in China Reviews

'Yep's book is an interesting and enlightening study. It is full of fresh and fascinating analysis as well as hard data. It is recommended to the specialist interested in rural political economy in China and in its enterprise reforms.' - China Perspectives

'This book makes a number of valuable contribtuions to the existing literature on rural industrialization and changing state-society relations in post-Mao China. More particularly, it addresses an important but hitherto largely neglected issue in the literature; the spectacular rise in influence of managers of collectively owned township and village enterprises and its consequences for the distribution of political and economic power in rural China.' - The China Journal
