Rezensionen
"In this concise work, Peter Nolan provides a compelling andprovocative assessment of China's developmental challenge. AsNolan shows, it is not just China, but indeed the whole world, thatstands at the crossroads. New rules, new technologies and a newglobal distribution of power have all called into questiontraditional answers to the problem of underdevelopment. China, to agreater degree perhaps than any other nation, has the potential touncover a new path toward modernity. As Nolan points out, theconsequences of its doing so, breathtaking as they are, wouldeasily be dwarfed by the catastrophe of its failing to do so."Edward Steinfeld, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

"Peter Nolan has produced a bold, readable and fast-paced workwhich asks large and important questions. He begins with abrilliant sketch of post-Mao China's enormous achievements andextraordinary challenges. After presenting the path ofneo-liberalism as no solution for China, Nolan powerfully depictsthe lasting lessons of the unique and glorious successes that wereChina's in the ages before the rise of Europe. He concludes with aninnovative and insightful argument that, properly understood, theway ahead for China lies in synthesizing and building on the bestin ethical thinking and economic analysis shared by Confucius andAdam Smith. Nolan has produced a mind-expanding tour de force."Edward Friedman, University of Winsconsin

"This is an important book written in the tradition of TheWealth of Nations and The Theory of Moral Sentiments. Rare in thepolitical economy literature, it is simultaneously sweeping anddetailed, rigorous and moving." Lin Chun, Asia Research Centre,London School of Economics
