China’s accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO) in 2001 was widely regarded as a major milestone in the development of the Chinese economy as well as the multilateral trading system. This book provides a remarkable background of information about China’s economy after WTO accession and analyses many important issues concerning China’s economic growth, international trade, transparency of trade policy, regional trade arrangements, foreign direct investment, banking sector liberalization, exchange rate reform, agricultural trade and energy demand.

‘. . . this book provides a benchmark for China’s global integration since its WTO accession in 2001. The 15 compilers present an intense analysis, employing economic theories, modeling techniques and the latest statistics.’
