Presenting painstaking fieldwork in a single location, it successfully illuminates fundamental aspects of the reality and the complexity of rural-urban inequality that cannot be found in macro-level studies, most of which are prepared by economists. The book offers a unique combination of rigorous economic analysis with insightful social and anthropological analysis, as well as revealing interviews with local government officials. This approach provides a rich tapestry of rural perceptions of rural-urban inequality. With in-depth analysis and empirical evidence on questions concerning the development and root causes of urban-rural disparities, the book significantly enriches our understanding of the widely discussed issue of rural-urban income inequality, but from the unique perspective of rural China. .Development economicsDevelopment Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W42000Development economics.Development Economics.338.9Gao Yanauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1065434Fennell Shailajaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910299648403321China’s Rural–Urban Inequality in the Countryside2545685UNINA
