Description and Table of Contents

Description

As the world's largest Communist state, China has to decide on new directions for its reforms, especially because of the success of its neighbours in East Asia. Taking stock of the Chinese predicament requires a broad ranging survey of trends in social policy, economic management, intellectual freedom, defence policy and attitudes to the outside world and this book has such essays which identify the challanges that face China and socialism at large.
