Ah, so this is more of a collection of essays by different authors rather than a single book like “The East Is Still Red”? Interesting. I’ll definitely check it out.
The incredible thing is, China is developing so fast that in five years time much of this book will likely already be outdated by then.
In the meantime, i see ultras are still malding about books like this. I recently read a “review” by a Trotskyist of Carlos Martinez’ previous book that called it “Stalinist cheerleading of Chinese capitalism”. Lol.
The arguments were what you would expect, superficial, dogmatic and ill informed. The dogs bark but the caravan moves on…
Ultras are having a really hard time nowadays because it’s becoming more evident by the day that China is not in fact capitalist.
