This book by Cheng Li is a pretty rough read. I started to skip around once I got to the Education chapter. I am now reading about more about Factions. Very interesting stuff. Definitely didn't think abpout this aspect of very differing factions oddly

no problem

glad you are enjoying it

@Jonn read this as well. it is absolutely paramount to understanding chinese history.

it is debated today even wether sun yat sen would have preffered socialism or nationalism, so it is still very very important

Thanks

Wew from cheng li's book. The Hu camp seems to have the younger generation of the party locked up heavily. This next decade will be very interesting

mmh

we'll see

Yeah I just read their educational background for the Hu camp. That isn't a good setup to run a nation. I'm excited to read the three principles of the people if it helps to get a better understanding. This Ching Li book is very informative for learning about the government structure and current positions of the government, but it still feels like that insider feel to get a better grasp of the society/governing society is missing. I guess that is difficult to do with something as opaque as the Chinese government though. His book isn't trying to do that either and it succeeds in what it is trying. I am just starting the Protege section now

Thank you very much for these book recommendations

no problem at all

despite having iconically nationalistic ideas, Sun Yat Sen is revered in the mainland

even though their form of government does not fit his model

your just fucked
