In a new edition of his path-breaking analysis of political and
social change in China since the crackdown in Tiananmen Square in
1989, Joseph Fewsmith traces developments since 2001. These include
the continuing reforms during the final years of Jiang Zemin's
premiership and Hu Jintao's succession in 2002. Here the author
also considers social trends and how Chinese citizens are starting
to have a significant influence on government policies. As Fewsmith
- a highly regarded political scientist and a seasoned
China-watcher - observes, China is a very different place today
than it was eighteen years ago. In the interim, it has emerged from
isolation to become one of the most significant players on the
world stage. This book - more than any other - explains the forces
that have shaped China since Tiananmen.
