Reviews

Even in the increasingly crowded field of scholars analyzing how the CCP intends to govern China, Lin's voice is worth paying attention to, not just for her insight into many of the events that she describes, but also as a window into the thinking of a contemporary and critic of the generation currently in power in China. -Xiaochen Su, News Lens


This brilliant book makes a great contribution to the historical research, theoretical exploration, and political debates surrounding China. Lin Chun locates her reflections in a broad historical context, which ranges from classical questions posed by Adam Smith, Max Weber, and Karl Marx to the diverse new trends of historical interpretation. Her succinct and incisive analysis offers a much-needed perspective. -- Wang Hui, author of The End of the Revolution (Praise for China and Global Capitalism) While most people have already cast China as a capitalist country with a communist government, Lin Chun shows that there may be life in Chinese socialism yet. Combining erudition, passion, and an engaging writing style, Lin challenges a lot of conventional wisdom about China. This book should be on the shelf of everyone who has any interest in the course of the Chinese economy and society. -- Meghnad Desai (Praise for The Transformation of Chinese Socialism) Even in the increasingly crowded field of scholars analyzing how the CCP intends to govern China, Lin's voice is worth paying attention to, not just for her insight into many of the events that she describes, but also as a window into the thinking of a contemporary and critic of the generation currently in power in China. -- Xiaochen Su * The News Lens *
