This book provides a systematic examination of China's historic anti-poverty campaign—a mission that successfully lifted nearly 800 million people out of extreme poverty. Moving beyond mere statistics, the volume introduces the "Capability Development" approach to analyze how China achieved the first target of the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development a decade ahead of schedule.The Anti-Poverty Path in China explores the evolving dynamics of poverty through multidimensional indices and rigorous theoretical models. Across ten inter-connected chapters, it investigates critical factors such as the "neighborhood effect," inter-generational transfers of human capital, and the mechanisms of poverty traps. By evaluating the real-world impact of rural policies, the book offers an academic roadmap for understanding how systemic vulnerability can be transformed into sustainable prosperity.Intended for researchers, policymakers, and international development practitioners, this work demonstrates that poverty is neither predestined nor unconquerable. It serves as an essential reference for developing countries seeking to adapt China's experience to their own paths toward sustainable growth.
