For many years American referred to the peoples Republic Of China as Communist China Why would that label be misleading today?
While China is still ruled by a political party named the Communist Party of China, many changes were made to the system. One noticeable change is the idea of a "free market" implemented by Deng Xiaoping. He opened up the nation to foreign investors. This was a key step towards the growing country we see today. Without foreign investments from the United States or Europe, China would be going backwards. It depends on your criterion.If you judge China from politics,however, calling China a communist nation still fits. For example, the media is still heavily blocked. In fact, CCTV, a state-owned TV program is censored to fit the government's interests. The current president, Hu Jintao, actually strengthened censorship after arriving in office. Also, land still belongs to the nation. If you judge China from economy or popular culture,there is no difference in general.Most of youth favour theInternet more than TVs and the censorship is negligible on the internet.

For many years American referred to the peoples' Republic of China As Communst China why would that label be misleading today?
In actual fact, the ruling party of China is still the CCP or Chinese Communist Party. However, the practise of free and open markets since the opening up of China by Deng Xiaoping in 1979 has gone against the Communist form of a closed economy. At the same time, the gradual opening up of political "democracy" has seemed to gone against communism. As Wen Jiabao admitted, there is a need to move to a democracy (however note: this move would be gradual, considering that a democratic reform could threaten the CCP's legitimacy). E.g. of democratisation: Village elections.
