中國自20世紀70年代實行改革開放政策以來，經(jīng)濟一直以驚人的速度發(fā)展。糧食、肉類、鋼等工農(nóng)業(yè)產(chǎn)品的產(chǎn)量一直在顯著增長;原子能(atomic energy)、計算機技術(shù)、航空航天(aviation and aerospace)技術(shù)等方面也已經(jīng)達到世界先進水平。預(yù)計到21世紀中葉，中國將基本實現(xiàn)現(xiàn)代化，達到中等發(fā)達國家的水平。目前，中國經(jīng)濟發(fā)展水平的地區(qū)差異較大，東部沿海地區(qū)比較發(fā)達，而西部地區(qū)相對不那么發(fā)達。中國正在進行西部大開發(fā)(Western Development Strategy),以縮小各地區(qū)的經(jīng)濟發(fā)展差異。
