Review "...an outstanding study of the relationship between the individual and the state in the PRC after the adoption of the reform and opening-out policies of the early 1980s."--Choice Product Description One of the most interesting questions in China studies today is the effect that opening the country economically will have on individual rights and freedoms. This volume considers recent changes in the relations of the state and several groups in the population--rural peasants, manual workers,the military, the intellectual community, and the youth of China. With distinguished contributors, this coherent and comprehensive volume should become an essential reference work on its subject. About the Author Brian Hook is at University of Leeds.
