Yes, China is still a socialist/communist society that has seen the merits of a more free economic system. However the Chinese gov't can and will react to situations that could lead to economic upheaval. The risk for investing there as a result is more substantial than in other markets but the rewards can be huge.

It may be drifting toward fascism which is another tightly controlled state wherein the citizens exist only to serve the needs of the state and have minimal or no individual rights. China does not have freedom (ask a Tibetian) and allows some capitalism to exist only because it currently serves the purposes of the state.
