Abstract: Abstract In the entire sweep of human history there has been nothing like China over the past three and a half decades. A few numbers help shed light: sustained real GDP growth rates averaging almost 10% (1978–2010); the migration of over a half billion people from the countryside to the cities (1979–2012); over half a billion people lifted out of poverty.1
