Market Control and Planning in Communist China

by Dwight H. Perkins

In the first in-depth study of this subject by an economist, Perkins focuses on a major problem--common to all planned economies--that has confronted the Chinese Communists: whether to centralize all controls in the hands of planners, or allow factory and farm managers some degree of autonomy regulated only by the indirect pressures of the market.
