Resistance, Repression, Responsiveness

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Strikes, protests and riots by Chinese workers are rising. Using interviews and statistics, Elfstrom shows that this unrest is altering governance in China at all levels. However, the result is political development of a profoundly contradictory sort: the state is becoming more responsive and more repressive at the same time.
