520 |a Exploring the recent trajectory of Syria's economy, the authors consider the utility of the transition paradigm - developed to study change in the former communist states - as an explanatory approach." "In the first part of the book, Samer Abboud examines Syria's shift to a "social market economy," focusing on similarities in and differences between the Syrian and Chinese cases.

A foreword by Raymond Hinnebusch provides context for the study.
