China was a feudalist state recovering from a brutal Japanese occupation when it had it’s revolution. Another thing you read in theory is the need to build productive power in order to provide for the people. China has done in 75 years far more than any other state you could point to. One of the reasons it had such a flirtation with capitalism in the late 70s and onwards was to attract western capital, to boost its own productive power, and thus provide for its own people. Now we see that with its unrivalled productive power, the state is beginning to reabsorb these capitalist entities, and state ownership taking back full control of captial.

I hope my limited knowledge in the area is informative.

Communism in one country is impossible. The best the CPC and China can do is continue to push forth the road of socialism for now. Also you should probably read some communist theory and investigate the matter before deciding to be the arbiter of what is and isn’t communist/socialist.

Do you suggest they press the “communism now” button?
