Features: In the context of China's economic transition, the emergence of new wealth disparities intertwined with the old phenomenon of egalitarianism, the interplay between new wealth disparities and existing social differences such as those between urban and rural areas and between workers and peasants, as well as the entanglement of wealth disparities with various corrupt practices and government misconduct, have led to many unprecedented social issues. However, traditional theories of income distribution differences primarily focus on the relationship between this disparity and economic development. This research effort extends this study to explore the comprehensive relationship between wealth disparities and economic, political, and social development, aiming to deepen theoretical research and enhance the effectiveness of policy-making. The book is divided into eight parts, covering topics such as the proposal of the research question, concepts and measurement methods of wealth disparities, general situations and different models of wealth disparities abroad, the current state of wealth disparities in China, the system of constraints on wealth disparities in contemporary China, and more. It elaborates on the issue of wealth disparities and government control in China. The book is comprehensive, well-organized, and rigorously structured, demonstrating high scientific, systematic, theoretical, and academic value, making it suitable for reading, reference, and exchange.
