This book provides a comprehensive, multi-faceted analysis of China's booming rural nonstate (collective and private) industrial sector. Based on a collaboration between Chinese and World Bank researchers, the 19 papers compiled here offer detailed national and provincial information from four representative counties, 63 townships, 122 rural industrial firms, and 1,174 workers, and address such topics as performance and efficiency, ownership and institutional structure, employment and wage systems, regional structure, and related aspects of China's rural industrial sector. This study breaks new ground in the scholarly analysis of an increasingly important, highly dynamic part of China's economy.
