It summarizes the economic analysis framework of development governance in mainstream economics, and further analyzes the connotations and extensions of the conceptual framework.

Since taking office, US President Donald Trump has adopted an "America First" strategy but has yet to specify a clear S&T innovation policy. However, Trump's current policies have already affected S&T innovation and his planned budget cuts will impact US growth potentials. Compared with the US, China is steadily implementing its innovation-driven development strategy with significant improvement in S& T innovation that increasingly supports economic growth. To spur future economic growth, China should steadfastly follow its S&T innovation strategy, promote the utilization of S&T innovation results, boost its economic growth potentials and make the most of global innovation resources.展开更多

Over the past 40 years, China's economic development has made great achievements, which may be regarded as a "miracle" of economic development. This economic miracle is reflected in the scale and quality of China's economic development. China's 4-decade economic development has not only brought great changes to Chinese society, but also has a profound impact on the growth and development of the world economy. However, this does not mean that China has found a complete new road to economic development. China needs to correctly view its achievements in the 40-year reform and opening-up, and accelerate the transformation and upgrading of economic development in a new era, so as to make a greater contribution to the sustainable development of the world economy.展开更多

It dropped to 6.7% in 2016 by more than 3% from nearly 10% average growth rate during 1979-2010. As for its causes, there are different interpretations among Chinese economists. One of the interpretations, which is held by some scholars including Justin Yifu Lin, is that external and cyclical factors are the main causes for the decline. The author disagrees with this viewpoint and holds that the root cause of economic deceleration is the delay in deep institutional reforms. An inclusive economy and state coercive capacity are two essential ingredients for sustaining economic prosperity. China must further enhance economic inclusiveness, and accelerate its transition into an efficienc y? driven and innovatio driven economy through deepened comprehensive marketization reforms. Meanwhile, it should further strengthen the rule of law to build a limited government that is capable, accountable, effective and caring.展开更多
