Résumé
Claude Aubert — The future of the peasant economy in China While the population actively involved in agriculture has become a minority in China, it is now the entire future of the peasant economy which is being questioned. However, this latter, based on « minifundias » consisting of multiple activities, is quite lively and involved in the economic growth of the whole country through the temporary migrations to the cities. The source of the Chinese economy's sustenance therefore seems to lie in its « self-exploitation. » It is however valid to question the long term viability of this situation which tends, once again, to favour urban interests at the expense of the peasantry.
