To study and understand income distribution, it is not only necessary to start with the general law of the development of market economy but with China's unique system and mechanism. Otherwise, it will be difficult to clearly depict the essence of China's income distribution. This book is the result of the major project of the National Social Science Fund. This project on China's income distribution, one of the four major issues when central government leaders came to the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences in spring festival of 2011, becomes the task of the Institute of Population and Labor Economics.
