1977: une loi rétablit le commerce privé.
1979: normalisation des relations avec les Etas-Unis, création des zones économiques spéciales, véritables greffes capitalistes: les étrangers affluent grâce à une politique d'ouverture aux capitaux étrangers. Attribution des terres aux paysans.
1984: formidable essor industriel.
The text is the economic history of China, written in list format as above.
I'm not really sure what they mean by "greffes capitalistes" here. Can anyone help please? Probably being a bit dim as my mind is already on Easter holiday!
Thanks in advance for any help.

directly transferred...
I'd use some kind of paraphrase - these zones were 'directly lifted' from capitalist systems, or 'transferred wholesale' or something like that.
just more ideas, hope they're of help.

registries
The Harrap's law dictionary also defines "greffe" as a "registry" or "clerk of the court's office." The link below says that at this time period. "private and collective developers were allowed to register and operate in China..."
Hope that helps!
