/195/ No Shock China ft. Isabella Weber

from Bungacast · host Bungacast

On China, economic reform, and the future. While Russia famously succumbed to destructive neoliberal "shock therapy", China managed to avoid it. How and why? Isabella Weber, author of How China Escaped Shock Therapy, tells us about China's opting for gradual reform instead.  What did reform mean for understandings of socialism?
