The Political Economy of China's Provinces is the first book to introduce the concept of competitive advantage in the context of Chinese provincial studies.
'The book ... is a source of rich information covering the specific circumstances of the province, the relationship between provinces and other regional divisions, and the economic interaction and competition between provinces. On the whole, this publication has made a positive contribution to understanding the political economy of China's provinces.' - Anja Lahtinen, Studia Orientalia, 2007
'Well-written, authoritative and up-to-date, this excellent volume of essays deserves to be more than simply a useful library reference source.' University of Plymouth
