Course Description

This course is an overview China’s trajectory since the 1980s, and to place its historic economic advance in comparative perspective. We will examine how China’s trajectory compares with other former socialist countries and East Asian “miracle” economies,and what explains the China difference. We will look closely at the growth model that has driven China’s advance, and the challenges involved in shifting to a new growth model. We will also look closely at the ways that China’s economy is in many waysunique: the fiscal and taxation system that funds the government; the ways that the domestic economy is walled off from global forces; the financial system that funds economic activity, and the ownership and control of China’s corporations. In all these ways, China’s economy offers a sharp contrast with all other major economies. Finally,we will examine widely discussed limits of China’s economic model and problems that must be addressed in the coming years, in particular the implications of high debt leverage in the corporate sector and among local governments, and prospects for China’s continuing advance at present and in the near future.

本课程概述了自 1980 年代以来中国的发展轨迹，并将其历史性的经济进步置于比较视角下进行分析。我们将探讨中国的发展轨迹与其他前社会主义国家及东亚“经济奇迹”国家的比较，并分析解释中国独特性因素的原因。我们还将深入研究推动中国发展的增长模式，以及转向新增长模式所面临的挑战。此外，我们还将仔细考察中国经济在多个方面的独特性：支持政府的财政和税收体系；国内经济如何与全球力量隔绝；资助经济活动的金融体系；以及中国企业的所有权和控制结构。在所有这些方面，中国的经济与其他主要经济体形成了鲜明的对比。最后，我们将讨论中国经济模式的广泛讨论的局限性，以及未来几年必须解决的问题，特别是企业部门和地方政府的高债务杠杆所带来的影响，以及中国当前和近未来持续发展的前景。
