‘...an original, meticulous and nuanced study of an important, yet poorly understood topic. The book makes a compelling case and lucidly illuminates the complex of political and economic factors behind China’s financial opening. A timely and relevant work of scholarship.’- Shalendra Sharma, Professor of Politics, the University of San Francisco, USA ‘This work provides an analysis of the domestic politics of financial opening in China and deserves attention not just by researchers of China's political economy but also practitioners who wish to gain more insights of the policymaking process involved.’ - Professor Stephen Y. L. Cheung, President, the Education University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong
