Tiananmen and the conservative critique of reform -- Deng moves to revive reform -- The emergence of neoconservatism -- The enlightenment tradition under challenge -- The emergence of neostatism and popular nationalism -- Jiang Zemin's rise to power -- Elite politics in an era of globalization and nationalism -- Hu Jintao takes over : a turn to the left? -- Conclusion.
"In a new edition of his analysis of political and social change in China since the crackdown in Tiananmen Square in 1989, Joseph Fewsmith traces developments since 2001. These include the continuing reforms during the final years of Jiang Zemin's premiership and Hu Jintao's succession in 2002. Here the author also considers social trends and how Chinese citizens are starting to have a significant influence on government policies. As Fewsmith - a highly regarded political scientist and a seasoned China-watcher - observes, China is a very different place today than it was eighteen years ago. In the interim, it has emerged from isolation to become one of the most significant players on the world stage. This book - more than any other - explains the forces that have shaped China since Tiananmen."--BOOK JACKET.
