Our study group A02 has concentrated on several hot issues facing the Chinese economy today. We have opened workshops several times to discuss those issues, sometimes inviting guest speakers from outside like Professors Zhang Weiying and Zhou Qiren, both from Peking University. Our research results are now going to be finalized and published as a single volume entitled China's Economy in Search of Marketization.

Marukawa paid attention to the unemployment issue, which is becoming a head-ache problem for the Chinese leadership, and its relationships with China's development and transition process. Less
