Reviews
—John Agnew, Distinguished Professor of Geography, UCLA, USA
“Through the lens of the Marxian theory of uneven and combined development, Rolf meticulously weaves together a coherent account of China’s rise from the initiation of market reform to the Belt and Road Initiative and the trade war with the US. It sheds new lights on the many contradictions within China and in the global geopolitical economy that the China boom brings.”
