内容简介 Acclaimed exploration of China's emergence as the most dynamic center of current economic expansion.In the late eighteenth century, the political economist Adam Smith predicted an eventual equalization of power between the conquering West and the conquered non-West. Demonstrating Smith's continued relevance to understanding China's extraordinary rise, Arrighi examines the events that have brought it about, and the increasing dependence of US wealth and power on Chinese imports and purchases of US Treasury bonds. In the twenty-first century China may well become again the kind of non-capitalist market economy that Smith described, under totally different domestic and world-historical conditions.
作者简介 Giovanni Arrighi is Professor of Sociology at Johns Hopkins University. His books include
The Long Twentieth Century, and his work has appeared in many publications, including
New Left Review.
