Fiscal policy
Can China Save Its Economic Miracle?
To improve medium-term growth, China must heed the lessons of its own history and focus on removing barriers to market entry and entrepreneurship.

A study of the Chinese manufacturing sector that I co-authored with Xiaobo Zhang suggests that during the last few decades, extensive-margin growth accounted for about 70 percent of overall GDP expansion.
