Globalization and Public Sector Reform in China - Paperback

by Kjeld Erik Brødsgaard (Editor)

This book comprehensively analyses public sector reform in all parts of China's public sector - government bureaucracy, public service units and state-owned enterprises. It argues that Chinese leaders increasingly realise that efficient public administration is key to securing the regime's governing capacity and its future survival. The book shows how large state-owned enterprises continue to play an important and increasing role in the economy and in business. However, state-owned enterprises can no longer provide care for all from cradle to grave - finding alternative, efficient ways to deliver basic welfare and health care is the big challenge facing China's public sector.
