The Chinese Communist Party and China's Capitalist Revolution
examines issues of political change and development in China. In
the last 30 years China has experienced a profound political
transformation and a degree of political progress but these are
largely mired in the assumption that the free market is inherently
incompatible with communism, and the perceived lack of political
reforms in China. Indeed, there has not been much in the sense of
democratization, multi-party competition, freedom of speech and
association, but as this book demonstrates, political development
is not limited to these factors.
Based on extensive empirical investigations of the impact of the
market on the communist party, with a particular focus on its
grassroots organisations, this book finds that the Chinese
communist party is undergoing profound changes in a host of
important areas. By analyzing the impact of China's socioeconomic
transformation on the CCP and the adaptations of the Party to the
new environment the book takes stock of the nature and dynamics of
political change underway in China. The author concludes that the
Chinese communist party we knew no longer exists-it is evolving
into something quite different, which must have political
implications for both China and the rest of the world.
