Omschrijving

How should we understand the ideological foundations of a state that is simultaneously socialist, market-driven, digitally empowered, and globally influential? Toward a 'Constitutional' Socialist State offers a bold, multidimensional exploration of China's contemporary political evolution, revealing how competing legacies - revolutionary Marxism, constitutionalist aspirations, nationalist rhetoric, and rapid technological transformation - shape its current path.

Bringing together insights from political philosophy, economics, digital governance, and history, the book traces the evolving tensions between early Communist ideals and today's institutional realities. Rather than offering a closed or definitive model, it approaches these themes with an open and multidimensional analytical framework that reflects the complexity of the subject, inviting readers to grapple with ideas still taking shape. Engaging with themes of international relations, social imperialis, Marxist economic thought and the relationship between digital technology and the State, the author advances the provocative concept of constitutional socialism, arguing that safeguarding basic rights is essential to long-term political legitimacy. At its core is the provocative idea of constitutional socialism - the argument that China's long-term legitimacy hinges on protecting fundamental rights.

Wide-ranging, incisive, and rigorously argued, this work provides scholars, practitioners, and globally engaged readers with a fresh conceptual toolkit for assessing China's future trajectory. At a time when the world watches China with growing urgency, this book offers a rare intellectual lens on the ideological debates and structural dilemmas that will shape the century ahead.
