Excerpt from Railway Enterprise in China: An Account of Its Origin and Development A question of some difficulty has been the romanisation of the names of places. At the present time the recognised system is that of Sir Thomas Wade, and a tendency has lately manifested itself to recast the names of places the spelling of which has been long settled by custom. The soundness of this latter proceeding. However, may be doubted, and on the whole it seems desirable to accept such spellings as have been settled by usage, and in other cases to base the romanisation of Chinese characters on the system already alluded to. The spelling adopted by the Imperial Maritime Customs in their returns seems to be based on this prin ciple accordingly, it has as far as possible been followed. In regard to the maps, it should he remarked that no line is shown the construction of which has not been sanctioned by the Chinese Government, although references will be found in the text to schemes which have been more or less seriously discussed. This course has been pursued in order that the maps may accurately represent the present position; the illustration of the somewhat nebulous schemes of the future may safely be left to future editions. I should add that the drawings upon which the more important maps have been based, have passed through the hands of Mr. A. G. Cox, of the Imperial Railways of North China, to whom my thanks are due for assistance in connection with them.

To convey modern China’s history and the forces driving its economic success, rail has no equal. From warlordism to Cultural Revolution, railroads suffered the country’s ills but persisted because they were exemplary institutions. Elisabeth Köll shows why they remain essential to the PRC’s technocratic economic model for China’s future.

Having been state-owned for decades, the railway reform in China confused many people, particularly in terms of its ownership and property rights arrangements. Western literature always prescribes that the best model for railway reform is privatization. China’s leadership has also enunciated the state’s determination to re-arrange property rights and rejuvenate corporate governance. But is China’s railway reform really a story of convergence and will the Chinese government follow the western model of railway reform? Addressing these questions, this book provides a positive explanation of the reform in China’s railway sector between 1978 and the dissolution of the Ministry of Railways. It bridges the socialist reform and transport policy literature, and studies the empirical changes of the property rights arrangements in China’s railway system. Refuting the convergence theory, it concludes that the cyclical reform policies of decentralization and re-centralization were actually an exploratory and interactive mechanism of "assets discovery" and "assets recovery". This in-depth study is based on 21 face-to-face interviews with railway cadres as well as field trips to collect first-hand information in Guangzhou, Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin and Wuhan. As one of the only empirical studies on the reform of the railway sector in China, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of China studies, Transport studies and Political Economy.
