Description
'The past decade has been remarkable growth in the literature on individual Chinese cities in both the pre- and post-revolutionary periods ... The long-awaited publication of Kenneth Lieberthal's dissertation research on Tientsin in Communist transition is a welcome and provocative addition to this body ofscholarship ... Important reading not only for students of contemporary politics, but also for those of longer-term social change in China.' William T. Rose, Journal of Asian Studies
