Description

Situating China

In the 1990s, China was undergoing profound social transformations and moving somewhere beyond the previously known experiences of either traditional socialism or classical and present-day variations of capitalism. The author briefly examines the ambiguous post-Mao reform process and attempts to grasp the changes in their historical and international contexts. Alternatives and future possibilities might emerge from this preliminary analysis.
