Abstract
The reform of state-owned enterprises was supposed to be the focus of economic reform in 1995. The new policy, however, soon incurred strong resistance from conservatives. After a series of heated debates, the Beijing government finally decided to keep the reforms at an experimen tal level for the time being, in consideration of their side-effects a nd their likely impact on social stability in the post-Deng Xiaoping p eriod. This paper will analyze the six major obstacles hindering the i mplementation of the new policy.
