L’Eveil de la Chine

Um livro que demonstra o movimento das ideias na China, desde Mao até ao congresso do PCC de Outubro de 2002.
«In opposition to those who think that China is mute or muzzled, Chen Yan provides proof in his monograph L'Eveil de la Chine that since the last quarter of the twentieth century it has once again become a veritable laboratory of ideas that serve to foster the reforms while criticising their trends, and he does so in order to attempt to give some sense to Chinese modernity. This book is not simply an intellectual history of contemporary China, it is also a reflection on the functioning and the conditions of the transformation of the Chinese totalitarian system. “How can a reform that runs counter to the Communist ideology establish itself over the long term?” asks the author.»
