It is a special and very high level of state capitalism \u2013 we could say of a unique type.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What was Stalinism?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>China&nbsp;replicates some features of other&nbsp;\u2018state capitalist\u2019&nbsp;economic models of a previous era, such as Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan. From 1949 to the 1980s, China was not&nbsp;a capitalist country. At the time it was&nbsp;a very chaotic, unstable form of Stalinism,&nbsp;i.e.&nbsp;a planned state-owned&nbsp;economy but&nbsp;where&nbsp;an unaccountable \u201cCommunist\u201d bureaucracy&nbsp;ruled&nbsp;ostensibly on behalf of the workers.&nbsp;The&nbsp;Stalinist-Maoist&nbsp;bureaucracy&nbsp;was&nbsp;not a class.&nbsp;It was&nbsp;a&nbsp;parasitic&nbsp;privileged ruling caste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trotsky likened the Stalinist&nbsp;USSR to a bureaucratized trade union \u2013 its base was in the working class, but power and control had been robbed by the bureaucracy. Under Stalinism, because it ruled a whole country, economy and state, the bureaucracy acquired a huge degree of independence from the social base. This led many&nbsp;on the left&nbsp;to mistakenly believe that the bureaucracy was a \u201cruling class\u201d. Trotsky, whose analysis of Stalinism and the deformation of the first workers\u2019 state is one of the great treasures of Marxism, responded to all these wrong theories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The restoration of capitalism in China that began with Deng Xiaoping did not bring about Western-style capitalism. This was never a likely perspective for China, because the CCP party-state&nbsp;itself&nbsp;carried out&nbsp;the&nbsp;counter-revolution and created a new bourgeoisie from&nbsp;within&nbsp;itself, using the totalitarian state as a massive lever to implement this agenda, directing and building up the economy in the interests of a new bourgeois ruling class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Differences with Western-style capitalism<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What are the differences between China\u2019s special form of state capitalism and&nbsp;\u2018free market\u2019&nbsp;capitalism in Europe and the United States? The CCP is a complete dictatorship. There is not a single democratic right under its rule. This is beyond debate and everyone knows it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore,&nbsp;and crucially,&nbsp;in China the bourgeoisie&nbsp;developed&nbsp;from the CCP party-state and its&nbsp;capitalist&nbsp;counter-revolution,&nbsp;and&nbsp;has&nbsp;never been&nbsp;an independent factor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is a parallel with other Asian states where the state has played a much bigger economic role than in Western capitalism, because in Asia,&nbsp;capitalism was a latecomer. The very weak national bourgeoisie needed a powerful and interventionist state to protect it \u2013 from much more powerful foreign capitalism and from the demands and pressure of the&nbsp;emerging&nbsp;working class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means that in China today the bourgeoisie and the CCP are inseparable. We stress that the CCP is not&nbsp;really a&nbsp;political party,&nbsp;but much more than this: it is&nbsp;the&nbsp;state apparatus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the Maoist bureaucratic planned economy reached a dead end&nbsp;in the 1970s,&nbsp;with the economy going backwards and the threat of mass unrest, the CCP tried to explore a way out&nbsp;\u2013 to \u201ccross the river by feeling the stones\u201d \u2013&nbsp;and promoted&nbsp;incremental&nbsp;capitalist \u201creforms\u201d. After the Tiananmen Square crackdown in 1989, the process of capitalist restoration accelerated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Today&#8217;s capitalist CCP<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party is composed of the most important capitalist groups&nbsp;and cartels, covering energy, finance, mining, infrastructure, and transportation. They are not&nbsp;merely the \u2018representatives\u2019&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;capitalists as in Western countries, they are the core or dominant part of the capitalist class and directly control many sectors of the economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CCP and Xi Jinping\u2019s dictatorship will never allow the existence of a truly independent Chinese bourgeoisie that is beyond the control of the dictatorship. They will not allow private&nbsp;sector capitalists such as Jack Ma&nbsp;[owner of Alibaba]&nbsp;to have political power, nor will they allow them to enjoy the same status as Western capitalists such as Musk and Bezos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2020 crackdown on Alibaba&nbsp;and its sister company&nbsp;Ant Financial, and other crackdowns&nbsp;were&nbsp;intended to weaken them and make them compliant with the CCP party-state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Compared with&nbsp;conventional&nbsp;capitalism, the&nbsp;CCP-state needs&nbsp;much greater&nbsp;control over the economy. It fears that if it loses&nbsp;this control, centrifugal forces could bring down its rule. For example, the CCP must have control over the banking system and capital flows. Western capitalism&nbsp;in general&nbsp;has&nbsp;largely removed&nbsp;capital controls and&nbsp;lets&nbsp;currencies float&nbsp;\u2018freely\u2019, but this&nbsp;would&nbsp;pose a threat to the CCP\u2019s rule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the CCP did not have&nbsp;such&nbsp;a high degree of control over the banks, China would almost certainly have already suffered a banking collapse after the 2021 real estate crisis. Control over the banks allowed the&nbsp;CCP-state&nbsp;to shift debt back and forth within the financial system,&nbsp;to&nbsp;conceal the scale of the crisis&nbsp;and buy time.&nbsp;They&nbsp;even arrest anyone who reveals&nbsp;the truth. Of course, this does not mean that the authoritarian regime has 100% control over every economic sector, but compared to Western&nbsp;\u2018free market\u2019&nbsp;capitalism, the&nbsp;CCP&nbsp;does have more intervention and repressive measures against private enterprises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However this doesn&#8217;t mean that the CCP has an infallible &#8216;vaccine&#8217; against capitalist crisis, and even a full-blown financial crisis is possible in future despite the high degree of state control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Is Xi reverting to &#8220;Maoism&#8221;?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the past decade, Xi\u2019s promotion of&nbsp;the doctrine \u201cthe&nbsp;state advances&nbsp;and&nbsp;the&nbsp;private sector retreats\u201d&nbsp;has become a major trend.&nbsp;For example, we reported in 2018 that the state had acquired controlling stakes in at least 30 listed private companies. This figure is surely much bigger today. Xi\u2019s regime has also required private and foreign companies to set up&nbsp;CCP \u2018party\u2019 branches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jack Ma&nbsp;was forced to hand over complete control of Ant Group to the CCP. This is because Ant Group,&nbsp;which expanded very quickly as a quasi-banking entity,&nbsp;had grown too big. It threatened to become a more powerful bank than the official banks controlled by the CCP. Jack Ma\u2019s attitude towards finance&nbsp;was&nbsp;different, more \u2018Westernized\u2019 and risk-taking. The CCP cannot tolerate the existence of \u201ctwo centers\u201d, nor can it tolerate its policies being obstructed or&nbsp;countermanded&nbsp;by powerful economic entities groups outside its control. Therefore, Jack Ma\u2019s business empire was cut down. The CCP declared this to be a campaign against \u201cdisorderly expansion of capital\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bourgeois commentators and \u2018tankies\u2019 only look at these&nbsp;phenomena superficially,&nbsp;clouded by&nbsp;their own ideology. They claim that these policies of the CCP represent \u201csocialism\u201d, or&nbsp;even&nbsp;that Xi sees Mao Zedong as a model. They always overlook the most important difference between Xi Jinping and Mao Zedong: they are both repressive, authoritarian regimes, both established a personality cult, but Mao\u2019s rule was based on a bureaucratic planned and state-owned economy, while Xi\u2019s rule is based on capitalism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CCP under Xi Jinping has from time to time suppressed private capitalists,&nbsp;but not to favour the working class. Rather it has done this to protect the entire capitalist system, and above all their own power,&nbsp;from the damaging actions of one or other sections of the capitalists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Xi\u2019s regime is what Marxists describe as a bourgeois Bonapartist regime, a very authoritarian one.\u00a0A\u00a0Bonapartist\u00a0regime\u00a0can strike\u00a0blows\u00a0even against the economically dominant class. In 1927, Chiang Kai-shek imprisoned\u00a0the\u00a0Shanghai bankers and forced them to hand over\u00a0one\u00a0million\u00a0dollars. This\u00a0was the\u00a0\u201cservice fee\u201d\u00a0he demanded after he had massacred the vanguard of the Chinese working class\u00a0and crushed the CCP.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The following is a speech given by ISA member Zhou Yi to a meeting of Chinese Marxists in May 2025 ISA&nbsp;and&nbsp;chinaworker.info&nbsp;describe China and the system led by the so-called Communist Party&nbsp;(CCP)&nbsp;regime as&nbsp;\u2018authoritarian&nbsp;state capitalism\u2019.
