At the end of the 1980s, China's leaders came close to implementing the kind of economic shock therapy reforms that a few years later caused a social and economic catastrophe in the former Soviet Union and much of eastern Europe. A moment of enormous significance for Chinese and world history, Isabella Weber explains how and why China came to the brink of initiating an economic "big bang", and why ultimately the leadership chose to pursue a gradualist process of market reform instead.

Later this month Isabella will be taking part in the book's official launch, along with James Galbraith, Branko Milanović and Bin Wong. You can register here if you would like to attend:

#ACFM host Keir Milburn takes #NovaraFM producer Chal Ravens on a tour of Leeds, one of northern England's historic epicentres of industry, trade and capital.

From trouble at the flax mill to face-offs with fascists, Keir maps out a working class history that’s as much about violence as it is about solidarity. We meet Chartists and communists, rioters and rebellious servants, and consider some of the problems facing modern Leeds, as a post-industrial city in a post-crash world.

Listen out for music from some of Leeds’ finest bands, plus cameos from Novara's James Butler and Craig Gent. Produced by Chal Ravens.

What is it about Twitter that turns us into such objectionable creatures? What has social media done to the language we use and the way we interact with each other? Ash Sarkar talks to Richard Seymour, author of The Twittering Machine, about the state of social media: tweets, memes, grief trolling, outrage porn, duckface, Spidermen and Jorts the Cat. Could our urge to tweet be diverted towards a more politically useful kind of writing?
