Over the last decade, China has become western capitalism’s primary competitor on the world market. Chinese imperialism has spread its influence into many regions previously dominated by the US, setting the stage for intensifying rivalry. We publish below an analysis of China’s economic and political development since 2016, written by Fred Weston as the preface to the new Chinese translation of China: From Permanent Revolution to Counter-Revolution released by Wellred Books.

As the world reels between escalating wars and economic stagnation, the Chinese masses are also suffering from the consequences of these developments.

The Morning Star, the political mouthpiece of the Communist Party of Britain, is praising and promoting two new books analysing China, China’s Great Road by John Ross, and The East is Still Red by Carlos Martinez. As you can tell from the titles, both books present the modern day Chinese economy and Communist Party as genuinely Marxist, which in their eyes obliges all communists to actively support them. Both books argue that China is blazing a trail towards socialism and ultimately communism.
