"In people's common ideology, China has never experienced an economic crisis, nor is it likely to have one. At most, it can only be regarded as economic fluctuations, not crises. However, the author believes that China has not only experienced economic crises. In addition, China has experienced eight economic crises in the sixty years since the founding of the People's Republic of China. These crises are all related to the stage characteristics of the country's industrialization: under the basic institutional contradictions of the "urban-rural" binary opposition, the institutional costs generated by industrialization, urbanization and the reform of the entire system are all transferred to the "three rural issues", so that the industrial capital in the city can achieve a "soft landing" and the original system can be maintained; the crisis that cannot be directly transferred to the countryside will lead to the "hard landing" of industrial capital in the city, triggering major changes in the government's fiscal and taxation finance and even the entire economic system.
The Chinese government has realized the importance of the "three rural issues" to the entire national economy. Therefore, in 2005, it made "new rural construction" a national strategy, and continuously increased trillions of investments to absorb tens of millions of "non-agricultural" jobs. Finally, it successfully responded to the global economic crisis in 2009 and achieved a "soft landing."
The main point of this book is that the global crisis caused by the "financial tsunami" is not only caused by the "financialized bubble economy", but also caused by the Western modern political system with a "high cost push-up" mechanism after accumulating a large amount of national debt. Therefore, the Chinese should take it as a warning and deepen their understanding of the laws of capitalist crisis and the internal chaos and external geopolitical fascist tendencies it causes. Only by reviving ecological civilization and maintaining comprehensive cooperation and autonomy in rural society to deal with external risks can China avoid repeating the modernization crisis of excessive debt.
