Towards a new Political Economy in Rural China? (Editorial)

Résumé

The stagnation of China's rural economy over the last decade has become a major challenge for sustainable development of the whole economy. With a rural population of more than 745 million accounting for 57 percent of China's total population in 2005, the country cannot afford to ignore rural issues such as restructuring the agriculture sector, modernising rural areas, and improving farmers' welfare. Ensuring a smooth transition in rural China has become the top priority in the Chinese government agenda since Hu Jintao and Wen Jiabao took over the key political positions in 2003. This represents a clear departure from the previous policy followed by Jiang Zemin and Zhu Rongji in the 90s. The political and economic costs of the growing imbalances in the rural economy have become too important for the leadership to ignore.
