Cover of Jonathan Unger: Nature of Chinese Politics: From Mao to Jiang (PDF)

This book describes and analyzes how politics among the Chinese leadership has operated and evolved from the period of Mao’s court up to the present day. Part I explores politics under Mao and Deng. For this section the five leading western analysts of elite Chinese politics — Lowell Dittmer, Lucian Pye, Frederick Teiwes, Andrew Nathan, and Tsou Tang — have contributed major papers that measure the empirical evidence against political science theory, recent Chinese history, and Chinese political culture. Part II explores and analyzes the ongoing changes in Chinese politics during Jiang’s tenure, and includes analyzes by almost all the leading English-language scholars in the field.
