Hegemonic Transformation

Discover the transformative insights of "Hegemonic Transformation" by Elaine Sio-ieng Hui, published by Palgrave Macmillan in 2019. This compelling paperback edition, a softcover reprint of the original 1st edition from 2018, spans 266 pages and offers a profound analysis of China's economic reforms initiated in 1978.

Hui argues that these reforms represent a top-down passive revolution, as described by Gramsci. Over three decades, the Chinese state has evolved from using coercive tactics to steer this passive revolution to establishing a new form of capitalist hegemony. This book is essential for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of China's political and economic landscape.
