Product Description

Review

[A] rich and insightful study that contributes significantly to the research on the relationship between political and economic reform.
(Doug Guthrie China Quarterly )

Gallagher's book opens numerous questions for discussion. It is a useful corrective to overly facile assumptions about the connection between economic liberalization and political democracy.
(Peter R. Moody, Jr. Political Science Quarterly )

The text makes a particularly important contribution to our understanding of China as a model of economic growth and development.
(Satya J. Gabriel Journal of Politics )

Readers wanting a thorough understanding of the labor issues related to urban China will certainly appreciate this book.
(Jean-Louis Rocca China Perspectives )

Contagious Capitalism offers valuable information and insightful theoretical interpretations on the changing economic and political relations in contemporary China.
(Wei Xu Environment and Planning A )

This is an essential read for anyone interested in any aspect of the political economy of modern China because the book expertly draws together many strands of analysis and evidence to provide a detailed and powerful argument on the relation between economic development and political stability. [A] must-read for anyone interested in either China's reform or labor studies at graduate and scholarly levels.
(Bill Taylor China Journal )
