Ghost Protocol by Carlos Rojas

Ghost Protocol by Carlos Rojas

This volume's contributors examine the ways the legacies of socialism continue to shape and inform China's capitalist present, contending that contemporary China is shaped by an overlapping mix of socialist and capitalist institutional strategies, political procedures, legal regulations, religious rituals, and everyday practices.

"This book is an invaluable resource for students and scholars in anthropology, sociology, political science, and cultural studies, or for readers interested in post-socialism, China studies, and migration studies in general" - Fang Xu (Journal of International and Global Studies) "Ghost Protocol is an important volume that is grounded in solid research and that contributes provocative challenges to received wisdom and even to received counterwisdom." - Ellen R. Judd (American Ethnologist) “Given its multidisciplinary background, [Ghost Protocol] will not only appeal to scholars of Chinese studies, but researchers who wish to be have an informed take on the variety of substantive issues covered as well.” - Meisen Wong (Asian Journal of Social Science)
