| Summary |
"The present volume has been conceptualized and written in honour of one of those scholars who has spent the greater part of his academic life trying to understand political developments in China - both in the PRC and in Taiwan. Jurgen Domes was among the first political scientists who tried to apply the analytical instruments of their discipline to Chinese politics, and ever since the early 1960s he has continuously been offering analytical views on China which have found an attentive international audience."--BOOK JACKET. "Fourteen internationally renowned scholars of Chinese Studies have contributed to this volume. They offer reflections on Chinese politics which touch the diverse questions in which Domes has always been interested."--BOOK JACKET |
