Argues that the dissatisfaction expressed at Tiananmen Square went underground after the Chinese government cracked down, and remains beneath the surface of increasing economic progress
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
'James Miles has written a fascinating, sobering book that contrasts with much of the recent conventional wisdom on China. He argues that bitter memories, rising jealousies, major dislocations, and a decline in the authority of the political system and the power of its top leadership may well produce future upheaval. Miles's argument needs to be considered by all those who think about the future of the world's largest country and its potential impact on the rest of us.' --Kenneth Lieberthal, author of 'Governing China'
Argues that the dissatisfaction expressed at Tiananmen Square went underground after the Chinese government cracked down, and remains beneath the surface of increasing economic progress.
