It's funny to read this list "against the grain" as a list of things that American soldiers were doing and saying in Britain.

The version of this argument that makes sense is that China experienced a lot of human capital deepening between 1949 and 1978 but very little per capita GDP growth because of dysfunctional economic institutions. Maoist policy created the potential for rapid growth but suppressed.
From the replies it sounds like the critique is that market reforms were only so successful bc of investments in human capital and strong interventionist state. Sure, I don’t think any serious people think market reforms are only factor at play, but they are decisive one.
