Longlisted for Financial Times and Schroders Business Book of the YearAn acclaimed journalist on contemporary China lays bare the country's twodecade quest for global dominance and how the Chinese Communist Party coopted what Western leaders have long considered their most powerful tool in the fight for liberal democracycapitalismto expand its illiberal influence worldwide.Bethany Allen, the awardwinning China reporter for Axios, shows that by tying profits to political acquiescence the Chinese Communist Party is forcing companies and governments around the world to accept its rules. The coronavirus pandemic marked the first time that the Party deployed its tool kit of economic coercion on an issue directly related to the health and wellbeing of quite literally every person in the world. But Western democracies arent helpless victims in Beijings game. The West created the conditions for the rise of authoritarian capitalism by divorcing political values from market structures.Written by one of the first American journalists to expose China's covert influence operations in the United States, Beijing Rules includes headlinemaking stories of Western institutions bowing to Beijings pressurea glimpse of what Americas future may look like should liberal democracy come firmly under the thumb of authoritarian capitalism. Grounded in deep investigative reporting, it sounds the alarm about what we must do to prevent the loss of freedoms we now take for granted.
