China is entering a critical phase in its move to a market economy, in which it will establish the basic institutional foundations of a market economy, including legal frameworks that will govern property rights, competition, corporate governance, intellectual property, bankruptcy, contracts, etc. Ongoing debates and discussions will have a major effect in determining the kind of market economy into which China will evolve.
This provides a unique opportunity to think about the differences in institutional arrangements and their consequences - and what would normally be an academic exercise could turn out to have enormous impact for a quarter of the world's population.  |

This task force is a global joint undertaking between Columbia University (including the Initiative for Policy Dialogue, the Committee on Global Thought, the East Asia Center, and the Law School), China (including Tsinghua University, Peking University, and the Development Research Forum), and the University of Manchesters Brooks World Poverty Institute.
Our initial meeting took place at the University of Manchester on August 8 and 9. The task force laid out a research agenda and discussed in greater detail how the project might proceed. IPD convened a core group of experts from China and the rest of the world, all broadly interested in issues of institutional design, but with backgrounds in law, economics, and other social sciences to discuss China's move to a market economy. |
