Features: The service economy, an economic form that emerged after agricultural and industrial economies, and has become relatively mature in developed and middle-income countries, is now receiving unprecedented attention in China. However, we cannot help but regret that this attention has come a bit late. This is the result of the lag in the development of the service economy. The China Service Economy Report 2005 is both a research report and a development report. It is called a research report because in the main report and various thematic reports, we track the frontiers of service economy theory and apply the principles and methods of related disciplines such as microeconomics, macroeconomics, industrial economics, international trade, and service economics to analyze relevant service economy issues. It is called a development report because in the main report, thematic reports, statistical data, and regulatory policies, we pay close attention to the realities and evolutionary trends of the service economy in China and attempt to provide multi-faceted objectives and recommendations for its development in China.
