The first scholarly analysis of the National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party, more commonly known as the Party Congress.

The book delves into the transformation of state-market relations under global capitalism, examining the intricate dynamics between capital, labor, and consumption. It highlights the challenges these interactions pose to the foundations of global democracy, suggesting a critical analysis of contemporary economic structures and their implications for democratic governance.

Focusing on the complexities of China's rise, the book explores three main areas: the blend of Asian authoritarianism with global capitalism that fuels economic success; the political tensions arising from citizens' demands for equality and justice, which challenge stability; and the broader global consequences of this prosperity, particularly regarding human security. The collection features analyses that combine political economy, historical insights, and global perspectives, shedding light on the paradoxes associated with China's ascent and its implications for the world.
