Growth patterns of the eight regions in the People's Republic of China (1980-1985).
The objective of this brief paper is very specific:  to test with data from the People's Republic of China an earlier model by the author on regional relative dynamics.  Originally, that model was used to replicate the regional relative population and income growth of 9 divisions in the US for the period 1929-1979.  Due to data limitations, only 1 component of the original model is replicated in the case of the People's Republic of China.  Although the full regional dynamics model contains a system of 2 simultaneous differential equations, with a linear and a non-linear isocline respectively, here only the equation with the linear isocline is confirmed.  This particular component of the model has also been independently verified for the case of Japan's regional growth.
