Abstract

This chapter explores the impact of Deng Xiaoping's market-socialist reforms in the 1980s and their pivotal role in establishing the foundation for China's crony capitalism. It delves into the distinctive role of the princelings in facilitating the transformation of the New Class from a privileged group into a new bourgeoisie.
