Rezensionen

"If you want to understand China's economy, or the political system that's attached to it, you should read this book. DeWeaver's account of the business cycle as it operates in that country's system of state capitalism will be extremely useful to academic economists, policymakers, investors, and anyone else who wants to understand how the world's second-largest economy really works in detail. The book's focus on inefficiencies, and on the political aspects of the process that produces policy, make it invaluable both as a guide to the country's present economic system, and a warning about its future. The author's scholarship is profound the book draws extensively on information unavailable in English but his practical experience in the Chinese business world gives the discussion a realism and depth that are very unusual in Western accounts of modern China, and his dry wit makes reading it a pleasure." -
