The world economy and Chinese inequality

The recent BBC Radio 4 Analysis programme by Martin Wolf, the chief economics commentator at the Financial Times, was particularly interesting. He looked at the significance of the increasing importance of the developing world.

Justin Lin, a contributor to the programme and chief economist of the World Bank, has also recently had an interesting sounding chapter published on Chinese inequality. It is part of China’s Dilemma, a collection of papers co-published by the Australian National University and the Asia Pacific Press.
