THE CHINA REVIEW 

A new book China Review 2000 edited by C M Lau and J Shen has been 
published by Chinese University Press (http:www.cuhk.edu.hk/cupress). The 
annual series of China Review will be continued in journal format from 2001 as 
The China Review: An Interdisciplinary Journal on Greater China. 

1. China Review 2000 

China seems to enter into a new era at the beginning of the twenty-first 
century. Economically, she has been able to come out of the Asian financial 
crisis of 1997-1998 seemingly unscathed. Interna- tionally, she was finally 
paying more attention to her relations with the outside world. For instance, 
she has succeeded in mending fences with the United States after the 
Yugoslavia embassy bombing crisis by signing a bilateral trade agreement as 
a first step towards entering the World Trade Organization. Domestically, 
China is still trying to restructure its economic and social institutions, 
particularly now that more openings seems imminent. How to operate a modern 
society where trade, 
investment and technological know-how flourish while keeping a tight lid on 
the free flow of ideas remains a formidable task to the Communist Party 
leadership. Also, there is a new president to deal with in Taiwan although 
developments in 
the two newly added Special Administrative Regions of Hong Kong and Macau 
are on the right track. China Review 2000 analyses critical political, 
economic, social and urban, as well as business issues related to changes 
during the past year, and tries to articulate the trends of development 
opportunities in the new century.
