Honored Work: “China’s New Elite”
“China’s New Elite” is a richly detailed introduction to the middle-aged generation of Chinese leaders who survived the Cultural Revolution and are now poised to reshape China. The profiles of political exiles, government leaders, university scholars, and executives of multinational and local businesses that accompany the main story underline the potential influence of this generation as well as the editorial scope of this project. The authors concluded that this generation is cosmopolitan, sophisticated, and wary of rigid ideology. For that reason, they will make an impact on every aspect of Chinese society from business to government to the arts.
