Despite Maos success and state capitalist success, was there any hope in developing china further without the capitalist reforms?

Mao Zedong was important for chinas growth, but i do not agree with china being primarily state-capitalist. If without outside intervention would've they still grown to the scale that china has today?

Why does the Manifesto describe Proudhon as an example of bourgeois socialism instead of petty bourgeois socialism?

Basically what it says in the title. The Manifesto places Proudhon's System of Economic Contradictions as an example of bourgeois socialism rather than petty bourgeois socialism. But Marx seems to have been much more consistent about talking about Proudhon as having a petty bourgeois mindset. And he doesn't explain his reasoning in the Manifesto.
