Features: To better study and learn from the achievements of contemporary Marxist economic development, further improve the teaching and research of Marxist economics, promote the development of the theory of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and contribute to the modern form of Marxist economics in China, the National Economics Talent Cultivation Base of the School of Economics at Renmin University of China has decided to cooperate with Economic Science Press to publish the "Translation Series of Contemporary Marxist Economics Research." It is hoped that this work can contribute to the development of the modern form of Marxist economics in China. A fundamental premise of this book is that all relevant developmental trends can only be understood from a longer-term perspective. It is worth emphasizing that to understand these developmental trends, it is also necessary to connect them with other forces, which led the world economy into a long-term stagnation from 1973 to 1995, a stagnation that emerged precisely after a post-war economic boom of 25 years. The main purpose of this book is to present as clearly as possible the connection between this long-term economic transformation and the strong economic rise in the early 1990s.
