This book attempts to provide an overview of social and political
changes in Chinese society since the global financial crisis. Rapid
economic development has restructured the setup of society and
empowered or weakened certain social players. The chapters in this
book provide an updated account of a wide range of social changes,
including the rise of the middle class and private entrepreneurs,
the declining social status of the working class, as well as the
resurgence of non-governmental organisations and the growing
political mobilisation on the internet. The authors also examine
the implications of those changes for state-society relations,
governance, democratic prospects, and potentially for the stability
of the current political regime.
