Thanks to the rapid expansion of the local casino industry, Macao has experienced spectacular economic growth since it returned to Chinese rule in 1999. Following double-digit rates of economic growth between 2002 and 2013, Macao has become one of the wealthiest regions in Asia, with GDP per capita rising from USD$14,258 in 2001 to USD$89,333 in 2014. However, as the casino industry has overshadowed all other sectors of the local economy, it has not only made Macao?s economy highly vulnerable and difficult to sustain, but has also aroused increasing social discontent. The authors lay out a comprehensive and well-argued discussion of the dilemma of the economic monoculture, and strategies by which to overcome it, in the process producing a book that will be of profound interest to scholars of greater China, students of political economy, and travelers to Macao. 606 $aEconomics 606 $aAsia?Economic conditions 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aSocial change 606 $aInternational Political Economy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912140 606 $aAsian Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W45010 606 $aDevelopment and Social Change$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913030 615 0$aEconomics. 615 0$aAsia?Economic conditions. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aSocial change. 615 14$aInternational Political Economy. 615 24$aAsian Economics. 615 24$aDevelopment and Social Change. 676 $a339.5 700 $aHao$b Yufan$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0883284 702 $aSheng$b Li$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aPan$b Guanjin$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255281003321 996 $aPolitical Economy of Macao since 1999$92205582 997 $aUNINA
