About This Book

A set of policy programs outlines a plan for international development of China's resources and economy, arguing that coordinated foreign and domestic investment and nationalized industries can convert wartime manufacturing into peacetime construction and mechanization. It proposes large-scale infrastructure projects—ports, railways, mines, and public utilities—to create markets, stimulate employment, and stabilize post-war economic readjustment. The proposals stress international cooperation to prevent rival spheres of influence, the need for technical surveys and expert revision, and include maps and appendices that detail geographic, engineering, and economic considerations for the recommended projects.
