Todays world is one marked by the signs of digital capitalism and global capitalist expansion, and China is increasingly being integrated into this global system of production and consumption. As a result, Chinas immediate material impact is now felt almost everywhere in the world; however, the significance and process of this integration is far from understood. This study shows how the a priori categories of statistical reasoning came to be reborn and relived in the Peoples Republic as essential conditions for the possibility of a new mode of knowledge and governance. From the ruins of the Maoist revolution China has risen through a mode of quantitative selfobjectification.As the author argues, an epistemological rift has separated the Maoist years from the present age of the Peoples Republic, which appears on the global stage as a mirage. This study is an ethnographic investigation of concepts of the conceptual forces that have produced and been produced by two forms of knowledge, life, and governance. As the author shows, the world of China, contrary to the common view, is not the Chinese world; it is a symptomatic moment of our world at the present time.
