Produktbeschreibung

Updated in its eleventh edition, China's Political System continues to engage readers in the pursuit of greater understanding of Chinese politics past and present, providing accessible insight into the important policy problems. Throughout the text, June Teufel Dreyer challenges students to think about the broader problem of governance in China by comprehensively showing how past and present impacts leaders, citizens, ethnic minorities, and policies, leading to incisive considerations on the different futures for China's political system. When instructors teach from this textbook, they benefit from Dreyer's expert analysis of historical context and current trends to show how this transition is challenging China's economic, legal, military, social, and cultural institutions.

New to the Eleventh Edition:

• Discussion on the CCP's hundredth birthday celebration including Xi Jinping's strident speech.
• Tensions in South China and East China seas and "Wolf Warrior" diplomacy.
• China's three-child policy.
• The "lying flat" phenomenon (tangping).
• New regulations clamping down on freedom of speech and human rights violations in Xinjiang, Hong Kong, and against religion in general.
• Examination of the overhaul of the for-profit tertiary education system and the large-scale student protests that ensued. New regulations at primary and secondary levels on cram school off-campus tutoring, crackdown on false advertising, and selling unnecessary programs.
• Evaluating the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the country's economy and government's response in terms of demographic and health policies.
• "Made in China 2025".
• Leadership response to deteriorating environmental conditions with new policy tools.

China's Political System continues to provide all of the tools professors need to introduce their students to Chinese politics in ways that are informed, accessible, and intriguing.
