Course Description
From the CTY Course Catalog (2007):
What are the social costs of China’s rapid development? How have China’s opening to the outside world, WTO accession, increase in labor mobility, and growing economic disparities transformed urban and rural China? What does everyday life in China look like? In this course, students analyze developmental issues throughout the course of China’s modernization, including population growth and control, regional inequalities, managing resources, and the environment as they look at the role of government and the market in today’s China.
