9 Preface Sweeping systemic and structural changes have occurred in both former and contemporary communist regimes in recent decades. The respective reform approaches have varied from the Big Bang to gradualism strategies. Outcomes have also fluctuated from the impressive to the not nearly so. While economies in Eastern Europe were still in the tight embrace of the command system in the late 1970s, China began experimenting with elements of the market system. There was no prior experience to rely on. There was no historical lesson to learn from. China was indeed the pioneer. Experiences from the tumultuous decades under Mao Zedong induced the post-mao era Chinese leaders to insist on stability, whatever the cost. Introducing elements of the market into a fundamentally socialist system had to be orderly, deliberate, and experimental in nature. Only when successes consequent upon experimental reform measures were unmistakable was the scope, pace, and depth of reform policies permitted to advance. The motto for reform was enlivening within, opening up without. The sleeping giant of an economy frozen by an inflexible Command system was too cumbersome to awaken. That was particularly true for China s inefficient and wasteful industrial sector. A more active catalyst for change needed to come from without. It was upon opening up without that entrepreneurial spirit in nonfarm sectors began stirring. The cherished motto of politics in command was and has been operative throughout the past six decades. As reform began three decades ago, it was still political decisions that defined and promoted reform measures in economic spheres. Parameters of reform policies were clearly delineated and enforced. Foreseen or not, China s current successes may to a large measure be attributable to its successes in the external sector. More specifically, it has been the phenomenal growth in the export sector over the past three decades that has been the most instrumental in propelling China onto the world stage as an awakened economic giant. Successes in the export sector have in turn been highly dependent on China s successful foreign investment

10 x Preface policies. It was social calm and political stability enforced by the regime that assured prospective foreign investors that their ventures in China would be securely protected. The primary proposition of this study is that tight political controls, especially during early phases of systemic transformation, could be instrumental in securing stable and sustained economic growth. This manuscript first presents some background information on China s political and economic conditions prior to as well as during the early years of reform. Parameters for and successes in foreign investment and foreign trade were then introduced and briefly analyzed in chapters 4 and 5, respectively. Chapter 6 serves as the test tube for the thesis of this manuscript. That is, tight political controls during early phases of systemic transformation could be a significant factor in securing developmental successes. Quantitative performances of four transitional economies China, Poland, Ukraine, and Romania were subjected to statistical tests and analyses. To a large measure, results from analyses of macro data from the four economies seem to suggest that there are merits to the proposition of this study. Thereafter, successes, anomalies, and challenges were presented in chapters 7 and 8, respectively. Chapter 9 concludes this study. In the chapter, some of the prerequisites that are fundamental to success are outlined and briefly exemplified with historical instances. The topic of objective value is then raised, with the question as to the future direction of China s reform policies being raised and intimated.
