What type of economics is taught in China?

Im assuming Marxian because of the ruling Communist party? Do they allow economists from other schools to teach/exist?

I taught the same (mainstream) principles curriculum at a top tier Chinese university’s summer school as you see in nearly all US universities. The textbooks were preselected for me by the program. We might have used Mankiw’s principles textbook iirc. 

The university economics curriculum is fairly uniform around the world and across types of universities. At various points, I’ve been affiliated with the following universities:

a US liberal arts college

2 different US private research universities

a US public research university

a UK public research university

a Chinese public research university 

Even when there were heterodox components of the curriculum, they were taught in addition to bog-standard mainstream economics, starting from neoclassical and Keynesian models.
