This book first analyzes the institutional changes and historical value orientations brought about by China's economic reforms and then explores the justice and progressiveness of changes in social production relations, as well as the uniqueness of economic growth and macro control in China's institutional changes. It further delves into the effectiveness and qualitative improvement during the growth process, including the evolution of structural height, the formation of structural benefits, and the improvement of factor productivity and input-output efficiency. Finally, the book dissects the systemic motivation of China's economic growth and development and proposes the requirements for systemic changes to achieve sustainable development. The main innovation of this book lies in revealing the basic driving factors of the debate on the justice of institutional change from the perspective of value theory, deepening the understanding of China's reform and development experience, and emphasizing the importance of economic growth structure efficiency and total factor efficiency.

This book focuses on the key issues around Chinese reform in the past 40 years, including economic structure upgrading, finance reform, enterprise ecology, village modernization, ecological development, income structure, global governance, BRI, and governance model. It collects the most important concerns and reveals the deep logic behind the reform.

This book mainly addresses China's Belt and Road Initiative in terms of the connectivity industrial and spatial development, as well as current world's economic and trade pattern under such synergy development, and focuses on the function and mechanism of industry and geography coordination. Although current research on the value circulation between China and developed economies is relatively adequate, the book focuses on the value circulation between the countries and regions, especially the developing economies. China and other developing countries tie strongly with the production value circulation. The coordination industrial and spatial development in the global value cycle is also the cornerstone of long-term stabilization and sustainable development in China. Therefore, this book provides the theoretical and empirical research on Belt and Road from the perspectives on industrial and spatial synergy. This book proposes several questions: Any inherent inlay between industrial and geographic allocation, i.e., is there any possibility for close integration? This book analyzes the necessity of coordinated development of industry and space perspective of production division. Secondly, from the perspective of historical evolution and current situation, it analyzes the relationship among industry, economic growth and fluctuation and compares realizing paths of synergy of industrial and spatial development. It contains the industry and spatial diffusion mechanism and the effect of synergy development. Moreover, the corresponding policy implication is provided for sustainable development through the Belt and Road Initiative.
