Economic transition in China has witnessed (re)centralisation of resources from the margin to the core in economic, social and political senses. Providing an insightful overview of China's recent development, this book employs a marginalisation lens to reveal, delineate and better understand the processes, patterns, trends, multiple dimensions and dynamics of the phenomenon, and the consequences and implications for development and well-being in the country. Bringing together a wide range of domestic and international experts and disciplinary perspectives, the book combines empirical research and conceptual analysis. It contributes to the debate over marginalisation and its interactions with globalisation and transition in China, and has significance for various domestic and international policy arenas in respect of tackling marginalisation, poverty and social exclusion effectively while striving for the achievement of the UN Millennium Development Goals in China and beyond.
