"Microsoft in the People's Republic of China
Introduction: Making a Buck in the PRC
The PRC is in the throes of making the transition from a command economy to an economy more driven by consumer needs. In the meantime the tendency for government ministries to make managerial and marketing decisions rather than letting private industry make these decisions continues (Khannna, 1995, 3.4).
In order for Microsoft to make a profit in this situation, they must strip their marketing and service aspects to the bare bones. Within Porter's Five Forces Model the entry point for a competitive market is the perceived customer base, followed closely by the suppliers. In the PRC there is a continued tendency for governmental bodies, like the Ministry of Machines and Electronics ..."

Introduction
Two Principal Opinions
Timeless, Ominous Signs
Urban Poverty
'Poverty Eradication' in the PRC
Political Repercussions of Poverty
Repression of Dissent and the Poor
Concluding Remarks
From the Paper
"Dissent is alive and well in the contemporary PRC, much done to break up public displays of dissent, in very old methods of deterrence rooted in policing, courts and the prison system, presented to the literate public as ensuring safety when, in fact, assuring regime safety. Chinese to benefit from liberalization are rarely inclined to question what is occurring in the countryside, content to see the urban poor kept at bay. Many might regard the situation differently, as observed by foreign journalists, certainly, if able to recognize the potential threat of millions alienated completely from the economically advanced society, some able to draw parallels between the present and centuries of other Chinese misrule to perpetuate such disparities. As the topic of Chinese poverty indicates, democratization is not likely, any day soon, in the People's Republic of China. Indeed, policies and approaches of the state have systematically pushed millions of citizens beyond the existing political system, far from the ideals of inclusion and participation that might suggest a possible shift towards democratic institutions."

Abstract
This paper discusses the reform era in the People's Republic of China (PRC) and the resulting disparity and inequality that has occurred. It specifically discusses the socioeconomic disparity rooted in the varied ability of people to take up capitalist activities. It also looks at the regional disparity in the PRC, owing to past patterns of economic activity, location and acumen.
Table of Contents:
Introduction
Acumen, Consumption and Class
Regional Disparities and the Future
Concluding Discussion
From the Paper
"New wealth, foreign investment, and strong export markets are achievements but some timeless problems of old China are not being solved and may grow worse in the future. Scholars of disparity describe its growth in class and regional terms, in a civilization that has often known very large class differences and regional identities. The CCP "empire" may yet break down, its myths of citizen equality and building a new China not working any more. The militarization of the PRC since the 1990s has caused some foreign alarm in a state project that engages millions of ordinary Chinese, directly or indirectly, but where will this lead, and what about guarantees for the poor that the CCP once offered? Why are people from the north-west on the move, forming camps in the capital? Why do Mongols and others trade beyond the PRC border, ignoring what the centre wants? Need the conditions of workers be so rough, despite recent efforts to clean up industrial pollution? These are questions that all involve aspects of disparity in the present PRC and also, point to realities that are extremely old, depending on how one sees China. It seems wiser to remember a China of many centuries' patterns, rather than an economic boom of less than 30 years' standing."

"This difference that Williamson addresses is one which plays a profound role in the strategy of the Chinese government when considering increasing trade relations. The Western model of capitalism is based on the belief that industry, when left alone grows and prospers within a free market economy, one that not only provides substance for its citizens but also leaves a surplus for export. In China, however, success is based on the exchange of economic advantages for political favors, major profits for technological innovation, and multilateral agreements with other Asian nations where vital resources are at stake."

Abstract
This paper explains how liberalization, capitalist activities and new urbanization have created internal migration within mainland China where regulated movement was normal into the 1980s. The author points out that this migration has created new wealth, waged labor, more minority member arrivals in cities and women migrants. The paper relates that the old family-oriented strategies also have driven this internal migration.
From the Paper
"When one looks at a map of the Peoples' Republic of China (PRC) one always sees a larger number of noted towns and cities as the eye moves, west to east. Until the late 1980s, the state controlled the growth of urban centers, carefully, and with people's movement limited towards the cities. Migration control policies worked to help the economy, stopping over-population in areas without employment, while seeing that labor was provided as needed, in other areas. The change to 'Marketization' meant that the central government's control over the movement of peoples began to decline."

"This research provides an analysis of the development of the modes of production in the Peoples Republic of China (PRC). As the PRC began as, and remains primarily a socialist economy, the focus of the Analysis is on socialist economic concepts.
Socialist Economic Concepts, and China
At the theoretical level, Marxist economics is relatively close to classical economics. Classical economics represented the prevailing economic theory at the time Marx formulated his original principles. Karl Marx adapted classical economic theory, and, through the ensuing years, particularly since the creation of the Soviet Union, later-day Marxist economists have further refined the theory.

Abstract
This paper introduces the political agenda of the Reform era in ensuring Chinese Communist Party control. It further reviews the economic approaches, effects on Chinese outlook and urban dual-economy of the CCP. This paper concludes by noting how Reform is definitely not about democratization, just as it does not demonstrate a socialist model but a strategic CCP retention of control.
From the Paper
"The Reform era marked the end of ultra-leftist influence in the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in several policies enabling private sector industrial and trading activities, modernized banking and finance, and an ambitious agenda of agrarian reform. Higher income levels, consumerism and greater social mobility did take form in the People's Republic of China. (PRC) A 'mixed' economy benefited some groups, as others lagged behind, amid sweeping changes allowing the CCP to maintain its political authority."

"This research provides a social profile of the typical individual in Mainland China--the Peoples Republic of China. Where appropriate, contrasts are made on a regional basis, north versus south, as an example. More often, however, the relevant contrast is between urban and rural Chinese.
Ethnicity
Officially, there are 56 nationality, or ethnic, population groups in Mainland China. In the 55 smaller groups, there are 70 million people (greater than the population of most countries) who are distributed over 60 percent of China's geographic area. The country's largest ethnic group--the Han Chinese, however, number in excess of one billion persons."

Migration and Urbanization in the People's Republic of China, 2005.
A discussion of the liberalization of the hukou system.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper looks at the question of why liberalization and urban/internal migration was permitted by The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) administration as part of economic reform. The paper looks at several articles addressing different aspects of liberalization permitting fairly free movement within The People's Republic of China (PRC). 100 million people are now thought to be migrants. Reflection of difficulties of enforcement in the old system is examined. The reduction of the old welfare system that required stationary public is discussed, along with the idea that by permitting people to visit large cities, for a set period, they would eventually resettle elsewhere. The paper looks at the idea of the population re-organizing or re-balancing itself without coercion.
From the Paper
"Wu remarks that the transition to a market economy has seen quite predictable shifts towards urban poverty and marginalization. (2004: 401) Like other capitalist and semi-capitalist economies, rapid growth has seen a rapid rise in social inequality. This has been one of the reasons to relax the hukou system that once regulated citizen mobility throughout the PRC. Xiang notes how the household residency control system that prevented spontaneous migration, after Reform, could no longer restrain mobility. (2003) To a large extent hukou (resident registration) restraints were no longer essential.."

Abstract
This paper discusses the changes that occurred to the traditional Chinese extended family with the Communist Revolution of 1949 that produced the People's Republic of China (PRC). It suggests that the sense of ongoing reliance on the family in the PRC offers to millions of citizens fewer social benefits or overall security than what they were used to in the past. It specifically discusses the changes induced through much of the 20th century in World War II, the Revolution and forced collectivization, political coercion, the Cultural Revolution and the death of Mao.

Concluding Notes
From the Paper
"Understanding change in the Chinese family in the Reform Era involves examining changes induced through much of the preceding 20th century in adjustments to World War II, the Revolution, and forced collectivization, political coercion, the Cultural Revolution and the death of Mao. Reform's shift towards capitalist development has evoked tremendous institutional changes in a PRC where much else remains the same, as in the urban-rural divide mentioned earlier that is said to be accentuated by rapid economic growth now afoot. Between the lines one sees a very large sector quite harshly affected and for whom the family will be the needed mooring in an unpredictable economic environment. One also sees that the family may change but does not dissolve, adapting to present circumstances that are legal and cultural as much as economic towards an altered Chinese family that remains just as important than before and certainly more than the individualism associated with capitalist development, elsewhere."

"CASE STUDY: PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA
Introduction
The focus country of this case study is the People's Republic of China, also referred to in this case study simply as China. The presentation of the case study findings include both a political assessment and an economic assessment.
Political Party System in China
The Communist Party of China (CPC) is the only legal political party of any consequence in the country. Some small independent political parties exist to lend credence to a claim of democracy for the country (Douglas, 2001). Effectively, China has a one-party political system. Therefore, there is no competition among political parties in the People's Republic of China."

China and Microsoft, 2002.
This paper describes the development of China as a potential manufacturing giant and its possible impact on Microsoft.

Abstract
The paper discusses that China is becoming more important as a producer of goods than as a market, and many overseas companies are using China as a manufacturing base. The paper outlines the impact on Microsoft: Creates new threats in the form of competing companies, provides a new opportunity for Microsoft to manufacture in China and the ability to manufacture cheaper hardware widens the market for Microsoft software.
From the Paper
"The major point of the article is that China is utilizing its cheap labor well to become a popular manufacturing base. Many companies are creating factories in China to take advantage of the benefits. This gives these companies major cost advantage benefits. For a company like Microsoft, this trend is not a major concern since Microsoft is not a manufacturing based company. Microsoft derives its worth from its technology and its product development. Developing the software is the costly part, not manufacturing it. Microsoft also derives its worth from its specialist people. This means that cheap labor is not especially significant to Microsoft."
