The Political Economy of Corruption in China by Julia Kwong Pdf
This text examines all facets of corruption: meaning, incidence, monetary value, the kinds of goods exchanged, the perpetrators and their strategies, in China since 1949. It explores the irony of how ideology and organizational structures under socialism can both restrain and encourage corruption.
In 1949 Mao Zedong hoisted the red flag over Beijing's Forbidden City. Instead of liberating the country, the communists destroyed the old order and replaced it with a repressive system that would dominate every aspect of Chinese life. In an epic of revolution and violence which draws on newly opened party archives, interviews and memoirs, Frank Dik�tter interweaves the stories of millions of ordinary people with the brutal politics of Mao's court. A gripping account of how people from all walks of life were caught up in a tragedy that sent at least five million civilians to their deaths.
?Secrets of Red China,? a political history, which tells quite a few secrets about the communist China, and those secrets are mostly unknown to the American readers, such as the attempted murders of Hu Jioatao, the previous chairman and party secretary before Xi Jinping, the present chairman and party secretary, and the murders were plotted by Jiang Zeming, the chairman and the party secretary before Hu Jiaotoa. Jiang wanted to have Hu killed because Hu wanted to take over all Jiang's power from the army. And another secret is the recording of the last five minutes on the plane of Lin Biao, which crashed in Mongolia. Lin was at that time was vice party chairman under Mao Zedong. The recording revealed the fact that Mao wanted to get rid of Lin and schemed the accident purposely. Both secrets are unknown to the outside world. And other secrets are put in my book too, like details of the slaughter of students on TainAnMen Square and how Wang Lijun, the police head of Chongqing City escaped to the US consulate in Chengdu City and asked for asylum. Most of US readers don't know such things. And all stuff has not been published in English yet till now I write it in English.
Prisoner of the Stateis the story of the man who brought liberal change to China and who, at the height of the Tiananmen Square protests in 1989, tried to stop the massacre and was dethroned for his efforts. When China's army moved in, killing hundreds of students and other demonstrators, Zhao was placed under house arrest at his home in Beijing. The Premier spent the last 16 years of his life, up until his death in 2005, in seclusion. China scholars often lamented that Zhao never had his final say. As it turns out, Zhao did produce a memoir, in complete secrecy. He methodically recorded his thoughts and recollections on what had happened behind the scenes during many of modern China's most critical moments. The tapes he produced were smuggled out of the country and form the basis for Prisoner of the State. Although Zhao now speaks from beyond the grave, his voice has the moral power to make China sit up and listen.
