The end of the world as we know it? Li Minqi, China and the death of capitalism

摘要

Li Minqi, a professor in the Department of Economics at the University of Utah, has produced a new interpretation of China, The Rise of China and the Demise of the Capitalist World Economy (New York: Monthly Review Press, 2008) that deserves critical attention. In this review article, I acknowledge Li’s contributions and take up the implicit challenge of debating Marxism and China’s potential future(s) with him.
