Institutional Change and China Capitalism:Frontier of Cliometrics and its Application to China

Edited by Antoine Le Riche, Antoine Parent and Lei Zhang

in World Scientific Books from World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd.

Abstract: This edited volume is based on original essays first presented at seminars in complexity economics, Sichuan University, China, in November 2018 and May 2019, and at the 12th International Conference on the Chinese Economy, University of Clermont-Ferrand, France, in October 2019. It also includes three contributions written especially for this volume. This research benefited from three French grants "Hubert Curien Research Fellowship" (Program Campus France 2019, 2020, 2021). All chapters assess the recent take-off of the Chinese economy from a historical perspective, enlarging the economic evidence that China's capitalism is a matter of institutional revolution.
