OSPHONGK 22: China's Financial Reforms: Problems & Perspectives/Investment and Finance in China

Instructor: Chen LI

This course introduces major political institutions and problems of governance in contemporary China. Departing from the early years of reform and their culmination in the crisis of 1989, the class investigates the Chinese leadership’s agenda of safeguarding one-party rule through reforms and adjustments in various domains. In order to gain a better understanding of China’s path of political development, particular attention will be paid to the varying degrees of success and the often-unintended consequences of these efforts. The course covers a range of topics from policy making and goals to contentious politics.
