Reviews

'Drawing on the concept of passive revolution, Kevin Gray successfully highlights the dialectical relationship between the subordination of labour and wider geo-political dynamics underpinning East Asian Development. A must read for political economists!' Andreas Bieler, Professor of Political Economy, University of Nottingham, UK. 'Gray's account of unfolding tensions inherent in the political and ideological management of labour in China's capitalist revolution is theoretically sophisticated, compelling in argument and well written.' Garry Rodan, Professor of Politics & International Studies, Murdoch University, Australia.
