A lucid and sophisticated introductory book on modern China written by a leading specialist in this field.

Contemporary China provides a comprehensive and up-to-date account of China that should inform any teaching on China. It offers essential information on how China is governed which is necessary background information to understand how China is embedding and positioning itself in the world economy and global politics.

Kerry Brown's account of Contemporary China is an outstanding, wide-ranging introduction to a country that is of crucial importance to the West. Ranging between history, institutional structures, and ideology, Brown shows clearly the elements that make up the China of today. A lucid and powerful read for all those who want to understand the next superpower.
Both empathetic and critical, detailed and clear, Kerry Brown's newly revised Contemporary China makes this complex and fascinating country accessible to those encountering it for the first time. It's a great introductory text for undergraduate students - and it is also packed full of facts, data and analyses that will be of use to more advanced researchers.
