Abstract
In the opening article, Victor Nee and Su Sijin examine the institutional transformation of Chinese agriculture in recent years to determine whether rural reforms have promoted an increase in per capita income. Relying both on secondary literature and on a new body of data, derived from extensive surveys conducted in Fujian villages, they conclude that conditions are indeed favorable for economic growth and that access to urban markets is a decisive determinant.Keywords
