" Today\'s Chinese state is coherent: and booming\"
Could you expand on that? Is this in reference to the state level? It\'s not clear to me. The picture I get from my limited readings is that at the local level, especially in rural areas, the communist party behaves as a Medieval king might, taking money from the local populace at will as the citizens have no recourse. This makes me wonder how effective the required indoctrination of the citizens really is.
Cam says you were working there for a year. What regions of the country were you able to observe?
