Late 19th century China (nit): Delong thinks Port Arthur/Dalian is in Shandong.
I am firmly of the belief that Delong's failure to treat substantially the post-Mao rise of China in the world economy is both a major missed opportunity, and error.
Agreed. While I’m obviously sympathetic to the idea that China is part of the rise of neoliberalism, a single book can’t do everything. Slouching tries and accomplishes so much that it feels like it could have just had a little more here or there, but at over 600 pages, the camel stares in fear of just another piece of straw to be placed on its back.
The Dalian mistake is just that, a mistake that he’s already apologized for (and Qingdao / Dalian feel like siblings that are often mistaken for each other.
One problem with "fault of neo-liberalism" opinions and beliefs is that how to explain all government interventions and expansions during the 2000s?
