The invisible hand
Article Abstract:
A photo of an advertising billboard taken in China roughly in Aug 1992 depicts the irony where the socialist realism of China's communist revolution has been supplanted by the capitalist realism of the government of then head of state Deng Xiaoping. This image shows that the invisible hand of free markets was quite visible in China by the early 1990s. Yet the reality of life for the average Chinese is a punishing routine of daily work in fields and factories.
