520 _aThis unique book explores the varied perspectives on contemporary processes of rural transformation and policy intervention in China. The expert contributors combine a critical review of current theoretical viewpoints and global debates with a series of case studies that document the specificities of China's pathways to change. Central issues focus on the dynamics of state-peasant encounters; the diversification of labour and livelihoods; out-migration and the blurring of rural and urban scenarios; the significance of issues of "value" and "capital" and their gender implications; land ownership and sustainable resource management; struggles between administrative cadres and local actors; and the dilemmas of "participatory" development.
