'The book remains an extremely valuable contribution to a growing body of work on the party and the state. Furthermore its problematization of the ubiquitous "Part-state" category is pioneering. Scholars and students of Chinese politics, communist and post-communist and post-communist studies and public administration are well advised to add this to their bookshelves.' - Government and Opposition'All the essays are intrinsically interesting.' - British Politics Group Newspaper
