At its core is an in-depth analysis of targeted poverty alleviation, detailing how precise identification, dynamic management, clearly defined responsibilities, and data-driven oversight translated policy goals into effective, measurable outcomes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeyond material achievements, this book highlights broader impacts on rural governance, endogenous development capacity, cadre–masses relations, and long-term rural revitalization.
