Governance and politics of China

---

Over the last few decades the peace of change in China has been breathtaking. How did China move from being one of the most isolated nations to being a major international player? This major new text assesses how reform has affected every facet of life and analyses the key policy problems China faces as it strives to become a member of the world community.

China has pursued an aggressive programme of economic modernization that has welcome foreign investment and has seen private business grow while the state sector declines. While the party has liberalized the economy, it has retained an authoritarian political structure and is ruled by one of the worlds last mass Communist Parties. Is it vital to understand how China and its leaders will face the challenges before them in the twenty-first century. The decisions made on the economy, trade, social policy, security and the environment will have a profound impact not only on the region but also throughout the world.
