Yuen Yuen Ang / 洪源远

Yuen Yuen Ang / 洪源远 enters the wiki through 150.“中国如何跳出贫困陷阱”，现代化之路又会走向何方 as the author of [[HowChinaEscapedPovertyTrap|《中国如何跳出贫困陷阱》]]. The episode uses her fieldwork and theory to explain China’s early reform growth as Development As Variation System / 发展作为变异系统 rather than as a linear institutional recipe.

Her role in the source is to defend a developmental sequence that begins from available, often imperfect institutions. Weak Institutions Market Building / 弱制度启动市场, Directed Improvisation / 引导创变, Local Government Policy Experimentation / 地方政府政策实验, and Informal Property-Rights Protection / 非正式产权保护 are presented as mechanisms that helped start markets before stronger formal governance became possible or necessary.
