Description

Professor Radhika Desai (University of Manitoba; Convenor, International Manifesto Group):

In a world gone beserk with US-incited rage against People's China; in a world where the bulk of Western scholarship has become so deeply compromised so as to yo-yo between the most tendentious anti-Chinese positions and confusion; in a world where the left has lost its ability to distinguish between imperialism and liberation; in a world that fails to understand just how world-changing have been the achievements of actually existing socialisms; Carlos Martinez shines the light of his crystal-clear prose and his acute political and scholarly insight on China's achievements, material, ecological, scientific and social. If you want to understand the most profound earthquake shaking up our world, read this book.

Dr Francisco Dominguez (Specialist on Latin American politics):

This is a most welcome and timely book. In it, Carlos Martinez furnishes us with rigorous and illuminating analyses covering crucial features of socialist construction in China, essential, especially for Western audiences, to grasp its highly progressive nature. The penetrating discussion Martinez engages in, elegantly pierces through the thick fog of malicious and aggressive imperialist anti-China propaganda. A must for all those who wish to build a better and peaceful world.

Professor Roland Boer (Renmin University of China):

In this important new book, Carlos Martinez sets out the case for the Western Left's resolute support of the socialist project in China. Based on in-depth research and written in an accessible style, the book will soon become an indispensable resource for anyone who wants to know the facts concerning China. Read it carefully, absorb its insights, and rectify your view of Chinese socialism!

Professor Ken Hammond (New Mexico State University):

Carlos Martinez's The East is Still Red: Chinese Socialism in the 21st Century, brings together essays and commentaries from his recent writings on a wide range of issues, both historical and contemporary, concerning China's revolutionary path and its ongoing efforts to build a socialist future for the Chinese people. Recognizing the challenges inherent in this effort, and the obstacles being placed in China's way by American-led imperialism, Martinez clearly demonstrates that China remains committed to the revolutionary mission of creating a just and equitable social economy for itself and as part of the imperative work of addressing the challenges of global climate change. He rejects those voices which see China as a neoliberal member of the global capitalist order, and upholds the need to recognize China's achievements in eliminating absolute poverty and improving the lives of its people as well as in leading in the construction of a new international order outside the hegemonic domination of the United States and its allies. This is a most welcome contribution to the discourse about China on the Left, and for a broader audience of the politically engaged.

Elias Jabbour (Associate professor of theory and policy of economic planning at Rio de Janeiro State University's School of Economics; Co-author of 'Socialist Economic Development in the 21st Century: A Century after the Bolshevik Revolution'):

Carlos Martinez has excelled in defending frontier positions on the nature of the Chinese socioeconomic formation. In fact, it is very rare to find intellectuals with his argumentative power and intellectual sophistication. In this book, the reader will have access to a wide source of information and living theory necessary to understand China and its unique socialism. Carlos Martinez, great intellectual and friend, is an honourable exception among Marxists in the West. Marxism in the West depends heavily on the talent and creativity of people like Martinez.

Editorial Reviews

Cheng Enfu (Chief Professor of the University of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, President of the World Association for Political Economy):

The inspiring idea that "the left must resolutely oppose the new Cold War against China led by the United States" proposed by this book, should become the international strategic principle of the left around the world.

Margaret Kimberley (Executive Editor, Black Agenda Report):

As the new cold war accelerates, it is vital to have thorough analysis regarding China. Carlos Martinez is an important thought leader at this critical juncture.

Professor Roland Boer (Renmin University of China):

The book will soon become an indispensable resource for anyone who wants to know the facts concerning China.

Danny Haiphong (Host of The Left Lens)

This book is essential reading for understanding China today and why it's so important to oppose the US-led New Cold War against it.

Ben Norton (Founder and editor-in-chief of Geopolitical Economy Report):

Carlos Martinez has done an invaluable service in helping us understand the new phase in China's project to build socialism.

Qiao Collective (A diaspora Chinese media collective challenging US aggression on China):

Carlos Martinez's body of work on the history and continued reinvention of Chinese socialism had a formative influence on many of us in the diaspora who came together as Qiao Collective in 2020. Carlos has always treated this veritable revolutionary epic with the respect and attention to detail it deserves.

Professor Ken Hammond (New Mexico State University):

This is a most welcome contribution to the discourse about China on the Left, and for a broader audience of the politically engaged.

Elias Jabbour (Associate professor of theory and policy of economic planning at Rio de Janeiro State University's School of Economics):

In this book, the reader will have access to a wide source of information and living theory necessary to understand China and its unique socialism.

Daniel Kovalik (Educator and author):

This book represents a message of hope - that socialism has a future, and China is leading in its own, unique way.
