Globalization and State Transformation in China by Yongnian Zheng, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Globalization has created challenges and opportunities which all countries have to grapple with. Yongnian Zheng explores how China's leaders have embraced global capitalism and market-oriented modernization by encouraging individual enterprise and the reform of economic institutions. While open to importing Western ideas in rebuilding the economic system, the same leaders have been reluctant to import Western concepts of democracy and the rule of law. Zheng argues that, ultimately, this selectivity will impede China's progress in becoming a modern nation state. | Globalization and State Transformation in China by Yongnian Zheng, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
