The author believes that preconditions of economic "miracle" of China of the end 1980 - the beginnings of 2000th years are laid during the Maoistsky period (1950-1976), and shows that economic successes of China are caused by refusal of political, social, economic and legal achievements of a socialist epoch, and distribution to China a neoliberal model of a global capitalist economy. The author asserts that sweeping economic rise of China has seriously broken balance of capitalist world-system and threatens to undermine its ecological stability.
