Mao and Markets
A thoroughly researched assessment of how China's economic
success continues to be shaped by the communist ideology of
Chairman Mao It was long assumed that as China embraced
open markets and private enterprise, its state-controlled economy
would fall by the wayside, that free markets would inevitably lead
to a more liberal society. Instead, China's growth over the past
four decades has positioned state capitalism as a durable foil to
the orthodoxy of free markets, to the confusion of many in the
West. Christopher Marquis and Kunyuan Qiao argue that China's
economic success is based on-not in spite of-the continuing
influence of Communist leader Mao Zedong. They illustrate how Mao's
ideological principles, mass campaigns, and socialist institutions
have enduringly influenced Chinese entrepreneurs' business
strategies and the management of their ventures. Grounded in case
studies and quantitative analyses, this book shows that while
private enterprise is the engine of China's growth, Chinese
companies see no contradictions between commercial drive and a
dedication to Maoist ideology.

BOOK
The International Ambitions of Mao and Nehru
Why do leaders sometimes challenge, rather than accept, the international structures that surround their states? In The International Ambitions of Mao and Nehru, Andrew Kennedy answers this question through in-depth studies of Chinese foreign policy under Mao Zedong and Indian foreign policy under Jawaharlal Nehru. Drawing on international relations theory and psychological research, Kennedy offers a new theoretical explanation for bold leadership in foreign policy, one that stresses the beliefs that leaders develop about the 'national efficacy' of their states. He shows how this approach illuminates several of Mao and Nehru's most important military and diplomatic decisions, drawing on archival evidence and primary source materials from China, India, the United States and the United Kingdom. A rare blend of theoretical innovation and historical scholarship, The International Ambitions of Mao and Nehru is a fascinating portrait of how foreign policy decisions are made.
