It is our view that Communist success in China no less than Communist failure in other nations is often unplanned in advance. When witnessing the falling of almost all other communist countries in the world, the Chinese government has been able to implement its economical policy in large scale. What is the secret of its success? In spite of its seeming successes Marxism has in China undergone a slow but steady process of decomposition. Moreover, the current global crisis had brought the world s major market economies into a deep recession. But China s economy managed to have the sustained growth under huge pressure, by the estimated 8% in 2009, and Chinese society remained confidence in the capacity of realizing its goal. More and more attentions are turning to China: Is the market economy invigorating the society? Or is it the Communism that dissolves the traditional barriers and lead to collective enthusiasm? Above all, why was China with Confucian traditions becoming a communist country? And what prompted the Chinese to adopt this particular kind of collectivism for its modernization ... |
