cities, and rural areas lagging far behind. Both geography and socio-political concerns have contributed to this pattern of growth. Geographically, the coastal areas have been China’s traditional powerhouses in trade and commerce, and given China’s borders with the Himalayas, the Gobi Desert, and the tropical forests of Southeast Asia, the coastal areas served as China’s primary (if not only) conduit to the West.
