Chinese Intellectuals Between State And Market (Routledge Studies On China In Transition)

This edited volume describes the intellectual world that developed in China in the last decade of the twentieth century. How, as China's economy changed from a centrally planned to a market one, and as China opened up to the outside world and was influenced by the outside world, Chinese intellectual activity became more wide-ranging, more independent, more professionalized and more commercially oriented than ever before. The future impact of this activity on Chinese civil society is discussed in the last chapter. | Author: Edward Gu, Merle Goldman | Publisher: Routledge | Publication Date: Jul 31, 2015 | Number of Pages: 312 pages | Language: English | Binding: Paperback | ISBN-10: 0415864534 | ISBN-13: 9780415864534
