About this Event
"Join us for a thought-provoking lecture titled 'China’s 21st Century Socio-economic Development: Towards ‘Common Prosperity’?' In 2021, the Chinese government announced it had eradicated extreme poverty and declared a new long-term national goal of achieving ‘common prosperity’. In this lecture, Professor Jane Duckett will review China’s socio-economic development trajectory over the last 25 years, with a particular focus on poverty reduction and welfare state expansion. She will then discuss the ‘common prosperity’ agenda and the challenges which China currently faces. Don't miss this insightful exploration!
