Beschreibung

In this book, Ian Williams tells the terrifying story of China's vampire economy and the single-minded and ruthless policy of the Party to bend economics and business to its own will. All this is part of realising President Xi Jinping's ambition of China becoming the world's pre-eminent economic, technological and military power.
