“The urban transformation in China during the 15 years since housing markets have been privatized is astonishing. This volume surveys the recent liberalization of government policy, providing detailed analyses of local housing markets and fiscal outcomes. International and local experts evaluate distributional issues and analyze the housing problems of urban dwellers and rural migrants. The authors draw important lessons about housing policy for China, for other developing economies, and for developed countries as well.”
