主题：A Demographic Theory of Economic Transition

摘要：This paper provides a new perspective to understanding the choices of reform strategies of China and Russia at the beginning of their reforms. China started its reform with a gradual approach that allows trials and errors, whereas Russia started its reform with a big bang approach. For the gradualist reform approach is usually praised as one key factor for the success of the Chinese reform, it is important to delineate conditions under which the approach is viable. This paper presents a theoretic model that explores the role played by demography---age structure at the onset of reform and its dynamic---in determining the viability of the approach.
