Includes bibliographical references and index. The right to be let alone : the grassroots decollectivization movement and Baochan daohu -- Struggling to move freely -- The Chinese entrepreneur : challenging the status quo -- Capitalism with Chinese characteristics and the basis of civil society -- Information wants to be free -- Sexual revolution in China -- Global trade, foreign influence, and the effects of globalization. China is a country whose people seek liberty on a daily basis. Their success has been phenomenal, despite the fact that China continues to be governed by a single party. Clear distinctions are emerging between the people and the government, underlining the fact that true liberalization cannot be imposed from above. |
