Document Summary

Q1: according to goodman and tomba"s analysis, their definition of middle class suggests individual wealth, new market, and more open societies, especially the potential for democracy. These new categories either own or control substantial wealth and thereby have the ability to affect significantly the lives on others. They are rarely if ever independent of the party-state. Small-scale private entrepreneur requires close cooperation with local government to continue their expansion. They are the most willing or able to take advantages of the changed policies of the reform era. However, most of owner-operators are on a very small scale indeed. One often-stated reason for becoming or staying an owner-operator is the noneconomic choice of preferring to work for oneself. For managers of state capitalists, immediately realizable personal wealth is less important than the influence they wield and their control of economic wealth. Their access to power and influence over others is matched by their total sufficient income.
