Reform of Income Distribution System in China

This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the formation and evolution of China's income distribution system under the socialist market economy. Drawing from Marxist theories and decades of economic reform, the authors examine how distribution according to work, distribution based on factors of production, and the pursuit of equity and efficiency have shaped China's approach to income allocation since 1949. Through historical analysis and institutional critique, the book traces key policy transformations from the era of the planned economy to the present stage of market-oriented reform. It offers insights into how China has addressed structural income inequality while maintaining economic growth, making it a valuable resource for researchers, policy analysts, and students interested in political economy, development studies, and contemporary Chinese governance.
