Abstract

To say that China is a country in the midst of great change is to risk making a statement that is blindingly obvious. The upheaval that began 25 years ago, when the communist government of Deng Xiaoping first embarked upon the process of reform, has led to massive changes in the country. The landscape of its cities, many of which have been largely rebuilt, has changed forever. Society has changed too, with more personal freedom and personal opportunity. Even the political map of the country is changing, with the ruling Communist Party embracing capitalism and calling on business leaders to join the party and help build a new China using the tools of the market economy.
