Features: After the introduction, this book is divided into six parts and fifteen chapters: the first part elaborates on the basic principles of a market economy; the second and third parts analyze the theory and operation of a socialist market economy; the fourth part examines the socialist market economy system; the fifth part analyzes the macro-control of a socialist market economy and its development strategies under such a system; the sixth part discusses the global trend of market economies. At the time when the socialist economic system was initially established in China, the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China timely and clearly put forward the task of improving the socialist market economy system to the Party and the entire nation, and formulated a series of policies and measures to achieve this task. Under this new situation, we had already achieved great success and accumulated new experiences under the guidance of Deng Xiaoping Theory, and many contents of the previously written Introduction to the Socialist Market Economy had become outdated and could no longer fully meet the new requirements for improving the socialist market economy. Therefore, based on the spirit of the 16th National Congress, and after earnestly studying and mastering Deng Xiaoping Theory and the Important Thought of the Three Represents while extensively absorbing new theoretical research findings, we undertook a complete revision of the book.
