About this product
Product Information
China has been growing at over ten per cent annually since 1978, but this has only come to very widespread notice in the past decade. This received wisdom about China has been largely of two types, both of which - more or less - understand China in the context of neoliberalism. The more business- or business studies-oriented literature seems to argue that if China does not adapt the rule of clear and distinct property and contract law - in short, of Western institutions - its economy will stall. The second set of voices is more clearly from the left, arguing that the Chinese economy, and city, is neo-liberal. For them, China does not diverge widely from the Anglo-American model that, from 2008, has brought the world economy to its knees. China Constructing Capitalism takes issue with these analyses. The authors argue that it is not Western neo-liberalism that is constructing the Chinese economy, but instead that China is constructing its own version of capitalism. The two central theses of their argument are: economic life - neo-liberal economic life is individualized and disembedded , while the China model is relational and situated urban change - China has created a form of 'local state capitalism' which stands in contrast to neoliberal versions of the city. This book analyses China as a 'risk culture', examining among others Chinese firms and political ties, property development, migrant urbanisms and share trading rooms. It scrutinises the ever-present shadow of the risk-averse (yet uncertainty-creating) state. China Constructing Capitalism is a must-read for social scientists, policy makers and investors.

I picked up my parcel today, when I opened it I was very disappointed, instead of what I ordered I found apples with New Year's paper (((how is that??? my order should be delivered before 12/22/2023, in the end it was delivered on 12/27/2023, I have no words, I’m shocked, my child was left without a birthday present, I don’t need apples for that kind of money. I demand understanding and a full refund. Plus, I see an email that I still need to pay some kind of tax. What is this anyway?
