On the relevance of post-growth in China
Post-growth refers to approaches prioritizing human well-being and ecological sustainability over gross domestic product expansion as a primary objective of economic policy. While it is widely discussed in the global north and generally targeted at high-income countries, its relevance to China remains underexplored and largely absent from academic discourse. This Perspective discusses China’s position in a possible global post-growth transition and explores convergence and difference between post-growth principles and development priorities in China. We consider how China’s concepts of ‘high-quality development’ and ‘ecological civilization’ could integrate post-growth principles, and vice versa. Understanding China’s context is crucial for a collaborative, effective approach to sustainability and global equity.

Labor Market Adaptation to Rising Import Competition

They analyze comprehensive employer-employee data from the Census Bureau’s Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics program over the 2000–19 period. Their analysis exploits location-specific variation in the impact of growing imports from China following China’s accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO) in 2001, which is due to the heterogeneity in industry composition across local labor markets.
