  China's economic development since the 1970s has been marred by an obvious gap between the country's 'haves' and its 'have-nots'. This work includes essays which trace the causes of this inequality, using data including surveys, interviews, official statistics and fieldwork. It exposes the malfunctioning of China's intergovernmental fiscal system.
