Books by Eduard B. Vermeer

Following China's successful decollectivization, diverse new organizational forms arose in response to different local situations. The contributors dissect the relationships among the emerging class of entrepreneurs, local officials, and their family members and associates.

Dr Vermeer's study of the economic development on Central Shaanxi province from 1930 until 1988 illustrates the effects of famine, war and construction under Chinese communism. He surveyed extensively the economy of the region in both the hill and plain areas and used the local government data and his own observations to create a detailed book.
