Description: "Cadres and Corruption reveals the long history of the Communist Party's inability to maintain a corps of committed and disciplined cadres. Contrary to popular understanding of China's pervasive corruption as an administrative or ethical problem, the author argues that corruption is a reflection of political developments and the manner in which the regime has evolved."--BOOK JACKET.
