Minzi Su assesses the prospects for China's rural revitalization programs now in their initial stages. Su draws on her extensive, front-line field research to discover precisely why Beijing's rural development policies, though helping many, have thus far bypassed hundreds of millions of farm households. Not least, she also identifies the capacities and political-economic conditions that hold the greatest promise for successful policy implementation.Rural developmentGovernment policyChinaChinaRural conditionsRural developmentGovernment policy307.1/4120951Su Minzi1967-1723371MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910814272703321China's rural development policy4124565UNINA
