Yes. The Peoples Republic of China is a communist country. A very dear friend of mine is there working as an English teacher at a university and he tells me about how backward things are there. All information is filtered through the government, his outgoing mail is opened and inspected before leaving the state. No newspapers from PRC can be sent out, their people are kept in the dark about world affairs. They are taught that PRC "liberated" the people of Tibet and that the Tibetans are happy with the outcome. Even the Web is filtered, most content is not allowed.

China has never been a truly Communist nation, nor has any other country who adapted the Communist Manifesto as dogma. Throughout history, it's always been a select group (usually men) who have benefited from the labors of the many. On paper, Karl Marx's vision works to a tee with a classless society and everyone getting a fair share of what they need. In reality, greed and desire always foul up the works. Human nature is always to be on top and to have the best shining toy in the block, regardless on how to get it. China might've tried to control this through its Imperial bureaucracy and then through Communism, but make no mistake. Someone always made better than the rest at the end. The Gang of Four proved that all too well.

If you're looking for what kind of society China is right now, try looking at its Imperial history. The title might be President or Chairman, but the manner has always been Emperor.

China is currently redefining its communistic ideals. While maintaining its communistic control over the people and politics, China is driving its economy to become more capitalistic with a communist behind the wheel. I would rather call this new form of economic manifestation..."communistic capitalism." (Don't hold your breath too long) Instead of allowing the "invisible hand" of the market control how the market operates and progresses, the "invisible hand" is rather the right hand of communism, or could be the left in extremities, whichever you prefer to perceive it. The future will be interesting to watch. As China's economy already has a major impact on the world's economy, it will be most intriguing to see what China's next moves will be and how the rest of the world will react.

Politics of the People's Republic of China (PRC) takes place in a framework of a single-party communist republic. State power within the PRC is exercised through three interlocking organizations: the Communist Party of China, the Central People's Government, and the People's Liberation Army.

The PRC is an oligarchy in which political power and advancement depends on gaining and retaining the support of an informal body of people numbering one to two thousand who constitute the leadership of these organs. The PRC's population, geographical vastness, and social diversity frustrate attempts to rule from Beijing. Central government leaders must increasingly build consensus for new policies among party members, local and regional leaders, influential non-party members, and the population at large. However, control is often maintained over the larger group through control of information, propaganda and censorship (see Propaganda in the People's Republic of China). Historically, under the Maoist period, Stalinist terror campaigns and purges were also important part of maintaining conformity with the political centre, but during the reform period these methods have been used in a more restricted and targeted manner.
The Great Hall of the People, on the west side of Tiananmen Square, is China's parliament building. There are 2,979 representatives in the annual congress.

While the PRC is regarded as a communist state by many political scientists, it is also arguably the wealthiest of those that remain. But attempts to characterize the nature of China's political structure into a single, simple category are typically seen as lacking sufficient depth to be satisfactory.[1] A major reason for this is that for much of China's history, the state had been ruled by some form of centralized imperial monarchy, which was followed by a chaotic succession of largely authoritarian Chinese Nationalist governments as well as warlord-held administrations since the last few years of the Qing dynasty in 1912. Although the PRC regime has been variously described as authoritarian, communist, and socialist, it appears China is slowly becoming capitalist in its economic system.[2] However, heavy restrictions remain in some areas, most notably on the internet and in the press.

People's Republic of China is an authoriterian communist country where the entire bureaucracy and administration are under the strcit control and guidance of the Chinese communist party.

Their communist doctrine however is quite deviated from European (and Russian) communism as the PRC regards the chinese citizens only as slaves to be co-exploited in cooperation with the western capitalists ->And they call it a development model

I don't think China is a communist country in the sense of Soviet communism.

How old are you? If you are older than 14, you know the answer to that question. Otherwise, have you lived in an underground pit your whole life?
