Taxation without representation in rural China

"The case studies featured here offer rare insight into Chinese political life in the countryside. This is the first in-depth English study of the problem of aggressive taxation by local governments in contemporary China and its social and political implications. Bernstein and Lu help explain how this has played a large role in defining the relationship between the state and peasants in the reform period. Their analysis adds to the larger debate over whether China's growing strength could pose a threat to other countries, or whether China's leaders will be preoccupied with domestic problems such as this one."--BOOK JACKET.
