In the first half of 1997, the output value of township and village enterprises [hereafter TVEs] in Zhejiang came to RMB 384.9 billion (in present prices), an increase of 19.4 percent over the same period for 1996, which was a slowing of 25.2 points. Looking at industry from the two points of hamlet and above and hamlet and below, the output of village and hamlet second-level enterprises rose by 10.6 percent, a reduction of 21.1 points, while industry below the hamlet level, that is cooperative business, and individual and private enterprise, rose by 26.3 percent, a fall of 29 points, and their share of TVE industry rose from 57.2 percent to 59.3 percent. Revenue from realized sales came to RMB 326.2 billion, an increase of 7.7 percent and a fall of 26.4 points. TVE industry in the province remitted taxes of RMB 8.6 billion, a rise of 10.5 percent, but represented a slowing of 3.5 points, and realized profits of RMB 16.2 billion grew by 19.2 percent, a slowing of 11.2 points. Based on an investigation and...

During the eighteen years of reform and opening to the outside, Zhejiang's use of foreign investment has attained a certain scale, has increased in quality and volume, and has played an important role in the development of an open-style economy. However, as a relatively advanced coastal province, compared with its sister provinces and cities, Zhejiang started late in utilizing foreign investment and the gap is quite large. What should arouse our attention even more is the trend of this gap to widen continuously. As a result, there has already been an obvious effect on the gap in the rate, quality, and efficiency of economic growth, and competitive advantage.

Beginning on New Year's Day in 1994, the Chinese government formally inaugurated the implementation of a system of tax sharing between the central government and local governments. This was taken to be one of the most important and wide-ranging institutional innovations in our nation since the founding of the People's Republic, as well as a major adjustment in the configuration of the relationship between the Center and the localities in terms of their relative and mutual interests. This innovation has brought forth widespread interest and concern on the part of all social circles both in China and abroad, over such issues as what sorts of influences [the implementation of] the tax-sharing system over the past two years has had on China's economic growth, on the fiscal revenues and expenditures of the central government, and on the conditions of the fiscal revenues and expenditures of the localities, and how we might objectively and fairly evaluate the effects of this institutional innovation, and so on. The following paper will attempt to provide a preliminary analysis of these problems.

The term "privately run economy," at the present stage [of development] in our country, refers to economic elements in which the assets of the enterprise belong to private individuals and are under a private ownership system, in which there is a set of labor relationships in which workers are hired for pay, and in which eight or more such hired workers are employed.

We have always claimed that the system of public ownership is the foundation of the socialist economy; well, then, can we also claim that the privately run economy makes up a part of the foundation of a socialist economy, given that the privately run economic sector also makes contributions to the growth of the national economy, also arranges for and creates jobs for large numbers of the employed, and furthermore, also pays taxes to the state, as required by the law?
