The Planning Process of China

The report provides an account of the State, the Party and the political system in China, which will enable a more accurate appreciation of the Planning System and Process of the People’s Republic. Though outside the scope of this study, it may be useful to bear in mind that Chinese culture is crucial for understanding political and bureaucratic behavior in the PRC, as cultural factorsgo a long way in explaining the nature of political alliances, expectations of political behavior, attitudes towards authority relations and even the fundamental strength of political organisations.
