China Constructing Capitalism

Economic Life and Urban Change

Beschreibung

In China Constructing Capitalism, the authors argue that it is not Western neo-liberalism that is constructing the Chinese economy, but instead that China is constructing its own version of capitalism. This book analyses China as a 'risk culture', examining among others Chinese firms and political ties, property development, migrant urbanisms and share trading rooms. It scrutinises the ever-present shadow of the risk-averse (yet uncertainty-creating) state. It is a must-read for social scientists, policy makers and investors.
