Full Description
The success or failure of China's development will impact not only its own citizens but also those of the world. The tensions between communist and capitalist identities continue to divide society as China searches for a path to modernization. Can China move to a more market-based economy, while controlling environmental degradation?
In this revised fifth edition and essential guide to the subject, Tony Saich delivers a thorough introduction to all aspects of politics and governance in post-Mao China, taking full account of the changes of the 20th Party Congress and the 13th National People's Congress as well as the situation in Hong Kong and current debates in Chinese society. The new edition offers increased coverage of Chinese ideology, situating recent social movements like MeToo and contemporary political challenges like environmental crises and increased migration within a longer history. Integrating end of chapter reading suggestions and updated case studies, Governance and Politics of China is essential reading for students of Chinese governance and wider comparative politics.
