China aspires to the role of the country with the largest economy and development potential, which requires constant maintenance of modernization capabilities. This intention may become fleeting if such significant development disproportions are still present in China, also in the regional dimension.

Currently, much is said about the directions of development of modern China. However, we still do not know what will determine the expected superpower position of the Middle Kingdom. The book is an attempt to answer questions about China’s main development dilemmas from a regional perspective. China aspires to become the country with the largest economy and development potential. This intention may turn out to be in vain if such significant disparities and development imbalances in the regional system are still present in China. This is accompanied by political centralization and economic decentralization. From the perspective of regional development policy, this process is very complex and results from many determinants. The key to understanding the transformation of contemporary China is to recognize the internal determinants of the functioning of both the state and the economy from a regional perspective. A better understanding of the ways of managing regional development disparities may contribute to a more accurate assessment of the dynamics and directions of China’s socio-economic development.

Dr Marek Świstak is a professor at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland. He is a member of the Polish Society of Political Sciences and a member of the Polish Society for European Studies. His research interests are public policies analysis, regional policy, socio-economic development of China.
