Policy makers as well as many scholars expect that formation of a private sector will lead, directly or indirectly through the emergence of a civil society, to political change and ultimately democratization. The rapidly growing numbers of private entrepreneurs, the formation of business associations, and the cooperative relationships between entrepreneurs and local officials are seen as initial indicators of a transition from China's still nominally communist political system. This book, first published in 2003, focuses on two related issues: whether the Chinese Communist Party is willing and able to adapt to the economic environment its reforms are bringing about, and whether China's 'red capitalists', private entrepreneurs who also belong to the communist party, are likely to be agents of political change. 410 0$aCambridge modern China series. 606 $aBusinessmen$xPolitical activity$zChina 606 $aEntrepreneurship$xPolitical aspects$zChina 607 $aChina$xPolitics and government$y1976-2002 607 $aChina$xEconomic policy$y1976-2000 615 0$aBusinessmen$xPolitical activity 615 0$aEntrepreneurship$xPolitical aspects 676 $a324.251/075 700 $aDickson$b Bruce J.$0280734 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450330303321 996 $aRed capitalists in China$9672268 997 $aUNINA
