China in the Twenty-First Century: Present and Future

What direction is China currently taking? What are its achievements and its challenges? What is the nature of its current economic and social development? Is its system socialist, capitalist, or other? What is its international role? These are some of the questions that were tackled during a two-day international conference held on June 6–7, 2013, in the European Parliament in Brussels, hosted by the European United Left–Nordic Green Left European Parliament Group (GUE-NGL), the Gabriel Péri Foundation (France), OSPAAAL (Spain), and the international network International Correspondence. Present were many representatives of Communist and other Left parties in the world, Chinese scholars affiliated with the Chinese Communist Party, members of the European Parliament, diplomatic representatives, and progressive intellectuals specializing in the topic. This report takes into account both the presentations given by participants and the discussions afterward.
