Descripción
This book explores the key role Taiwan has played in facilitating China's economic "miracle." Rigger argues that without Taiwanese investment, the PRC would be decades behind its current position in the global economy. She also looks toward the future and asks whether Taiwan can maintain its status as a leader in China's economic development.
