Curious about China but not sure where to start? Come join the conversation.
No prerequisites. No jargon policing. Just working people trying to understand how the world actually works and what alternatives exist beyond the capitalist framework we’re told is inevitable.
This week we’re discussing Ep 390 - China’s Green Development Is Both Anit-Imperialist & Socialist, ft. Ashwin Shantha. Not as propaganda. Not as cheerleading. As a case study in what happens when a state asserts sovereignty over capital instead of the other way around.
How does China’s “dual-credit policy” scale EV production without waiting for market demand?
What does it mean to “prioritize use value over exchange value?”
Why does energy sovereignty matter for preventing unequal exchange?
How do state-owned enterprises function differently than private corporations when building renewable infrastructure?
These aren’t abstract questions. They’re about understanding different development models, why the Global South pays attention to China’s trajectory, and what climate action looks like when it’s not trapped inside neoliberal logic.
Bring your questions. Bring your skepticism. Bring your curiosity about how economies can be organized around human need instead of profit extraction.
