Features: The concept of national planning can be broadly and narrowly defined: broad national planning includes long-term plans, five-year plans, and annual plans, while narrow national planning excludes plans. Compared to narrow planning, plans are more long-term and strategic, as well as more qualitative and principled. This book focuses on the development and structure of national planning (narrow) as a historical phenomenon, as well as the nature and functions of national planning that has replaced the original national planning in China. The book primarily studies the development and structure, nature, and functions of national planning as a historical phenomenon, employing institutional theory and methods. Theoretically, it delves into the plans and changes in the West, and through the theoretical research on national planning, it helps to gain a deeper understanding of the laws governing the development of China's socialist market economy.
