description <p>This policy brief argues that Minxin Pei’s <em>China’s Trapped Transition: The Limits of Developmental Autocracy</em> contains a number of useful insights into the political economy of contemporary China.</p> <p>These include recognition of the convergence of the economic and political elite in ways that tend to perpetuate the dominance of that elite; recognition that economic development can strengthen autocracy, by providing greater resources for the state both to repress societal challenges and distribute patronage; and recognition that this pattern of rule has created a number of governance deficits that have distorted China’s socio-economic growth causing a serious erosion of social justice.</p>
