Who said what
Adam Tooze👍 Recommends
…book recommendations for understanding deng xiaoping and china's economic transformation
“And my second suggestion is Jonathan Chatwin's book, The Southern Tour, which is an extraordinary account of Deng Xiaoping's tour of southern China in 1992. In the moment when, after the repression of Tiananmen Square in 1989, he revives the reform and opening up project. So this legendary moment in the economic reform process that has made modern China.”
