Abstract
The process of economic and political reform in China is an experiment unique in the world, and, as such, deserves to be studied in order to learn from it. The present paper is an essay about China`s political system, and how it has evolved slowly meanwhile the chinese economy has been swiftly transforming itself. The political system has evolved, not only from errors, but also from wise corrections. It has not only experienced moments of atrophy, but also of fruitful renovations. It is a system that reinvents, learns and adapts itself tothe different internal and external demands that had not only threatened it, but, also, paradoxically, benefitted it.
