The philosopher Xu Changfu presents and reflects the current political thinking in China, its marxist tradition and its transformation in the era of globalisation.
„This collection of essays provides an excellent introduction to important aspects of contemporary Chinese social and political thought. Xu Changfu ranges widely – from interpretations of Marx by Chinese scholars to issues of global ecology. In so doing, he shows himself to be one of the foremost members of that body of Chinese thinkers who, while critical in many respects of the current regime, wish to remain true to the main thrust of the thought of Marx himself.“
