Title: A Political Economy Perspective of the Chinese Government Tactical Behavior
Abstract: In the last decades China has experienced a sustained economic growth that has led to
an exceptional increase in its income. Thanks to this performance, China is now one
of the main actors on the world economic scene but, in spite of this economic opening,
there has been no political opening and not all regions and social groups have equally
benefited from the fast growth of the last decades. In the paper I will investigate the
tactical behavior kept by the Chinese government in order to pursue economic growth
and maintain the power through this development phase. The issue is important in
order to the shed some light on the determinants of the Chinese government’s behavior and to provide 
some insight on possible future evolutions in Chinese political life.
