1978年以来尤其是过去十年,中国的发展进程发生了显著变化。2011年,中国国内生产总值在相继超越德、法、英后又超过了日本,仅次于美国;人均GDP较1978年增长了91倍,超过30000元。各界对中国未来二三十年能否继续保持增长势头争议颇多,而对比通过快速推进城市化及工业化实现经济增长的国家或许中国的未来之路将更加明朗。 Since 1978, especially in the past decade, China’s development has undergone significant changes. In 2011, China’s GDP surpassed Japan after France, France and Britain surpass one after another, second only to the United States; its GDP per capita increased 91 times over 1978, surpassing 30,000 yuan. The debate over whether China can maintain its growth momentum in the next two or three decades will be even more uncertain as compared with the prospects for the future of China through rapid urbanization and industrialization.
