This book breaks new ground by systematically examining China's
capitalist transformation through several comparative lenses. The
great majority of research on China to date has consisted of
single-country studies. This is the result of the methodological
demands of studying China and a sense of the country's
distinctiveness due to its grand size and long history. The moniker
Middle Kingdom, a direct translation of the Chinese-language word
for China, is one of the most prominent symbols of the country's
supposed uniqueness.
Composed of contributions from leading specialists on China's
political economy, this volume demonstrates the benefits of
systematically comparing China with other countries, including
France, Russia, Japan, South Korea, Indonesia, India, Brazil, and
South Africa. Doing so puts the People's Republic in a light not
available through other approaches, and it provides a chance to
consider political theories by including an important case too
often left out of studies.
