Abstract
- A study on the objectives motivating decisions of local leaders in China show that Chinese village leaders engage in rural industrialization due to personal profit motive and to gain independence from higher authorities. Efforts are also directed toward village welfare and preserving high agricultural productivity. The understanding of village leaders goals will assist in the formulation of incentive-based policy measures. It will also help improve the desirability of goals associated with agricultural activities.
