I listened to this earlier, while working out! Very good interview, I particularly liked how Weiwei explained that it’s the control of goods that gives production-focused economies advantage over currency-focused economies like the US, and why the flailing of the US Empire after being caught in its own trap of de-industrialization is playing in the favor of the PRC.
Yep, was very good to emphasize that the US is only about finance capital, which can’t win in the long run against industrial socialism. The part about the 4 consecutive 5 year EV plans was cool too.
Yep! Really shows the benefits of intentional planning through socialism in a practical and approachable way.
so they are reformist
Wrong, try again.
he literally said that Its a fact that china has market and private share in economy has been growing I hope china isnt headed in wrong direction, feel free to correct me
Markets do not equal capitalism, and the private part of the economy is not growing proportional to the socialist sector, and must always remain subservient to it.
Some good articles on this:
- The Long Game and Its Contradictions. Audiobook
- The myth of Chinese state capitalism. Did Deng really betray Chinese socialism?
