Book excerpt: The product of an international academic conference held at Brown U. in November 1987, this volume provides a comprehensive analysis and assessment of the nature, pattern, and trend of Deng Xiaoping's far-reaching developmental reforms in the decade following the Third Plenum of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party in December 1978. The volume, like the conference, is in two parts. In the first, 12 research papers are presented by Western scholars, each followed by comments from two or three participants. In the second part, a senior government official from Beijing outlines the reforms of the post-Mao period, followed by assessments of the policy implications of the reforms by officials from Tokyo, Moscow, and Washington.
