Beginning in 1978, economic reforms guiding China from a planned economy toward a market-oriented one have promoted the GDP to grow at an over 8% annually. Today, China has become the 2nd largest economy in the world. We will start with the historical background of this transition process and then will cover selected post-reform topics, such as one child policy, hukou system, environmental challenges.
