226pp, index, paperback, very good copy. "In mid-1989 the crisis which had threatened China during the previous four years erupted into violence on the streets of Beijing and other major cities. "China in the Nineties" analyzes the political, ideological, economic, and social roots of that crisis and considers the alternatives now facing the Chinese Communist Party and the Chinese people. The dilemma which bedevils China's attempt to manage her current problems is that reform is urgently needed now, yet fundamental change will only happen over time. The future seems at first sight to present a stark choice between authoritarian socialism and capitalist democracy, and this impression is reinforced by developments in Eastern Europe and throughout the Communist world. However, as the essays in this volume demonstrate, this may be an oversimplification of Chinese reality. Taking stock of the Chinese predicament requires a broad-ranging survey of trends in social policy, the dynamics of political and social change, and China's attitudes to and relations with the outside world.Written by analysts from England, Australia, and the United States, this book identifies the challenges now facing the country and presents an assessment of the prospects for China, and for socialism at large, through the nineties." (Publisher's description).

paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
