Recenzje

'… in her excellent new book China's Contained Resource Curse: How Minerals Shape State-Capital-Labor Relations, political scientist Jing Vivian Zhan has offered a nuanced analysis of how Beijing has largely avoided the potentially deleterious effects of mining and drilling at a national level, even as local communities in particularly resource-dependent areas of China have struggled.' Manfred Elfstrom, The China Quarterly
