Cadre Country by John Fitzgerald
Since the founding of the Communist Party in China just over a century ago, there is much the country has achieved. But who does the heavy lifting? And who walks away with the spoils? Cadre Country places the spotlight on the nation's 40 million cadres - the officials employed by the Communist Party to protect its great enterprise."It takes decades of patient observation, experience and study of China to produce a book like thisCadre Country is a must read for specialists and the general public." — Anita Chan, Australian National University
"One of the most important books on China written since Xi Jinping assumed power, Cadre Country is a forensic and profound explication of the true nature of the Chinese Communist Party." — John Lee, Hudson Institute and United States Studies Centre
