Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Examines the rising power of China and Chinese foreign policy through a revisionist analysis of Chinese civilization.What does the rise of China represent, and how should the international community respond? With a holistic rereading of Chinese longue dure history, FeiLing Wang provides a simple but powerful framework for understanding the nature of persistent and rising Chinese power and its implications for the current global order. He argues that the Chinese ideation and tradition of political governance and world orderthe China Orderis based on an imperial state of ConfucianLegalism as historically exemplified by the QinHan polity. Claiming a Mandate of Heaven to unify and govern the whole known world or tianxia (all under heaven), the China Order dominated Eastern Eurasia as a world empire for more than two millennia, until the late nineteenth century. Since 1949, the Peoples Republic of China has been a reincarnated QinHan polity without the traditional China Order, finding itself stuck in the endless struggle against the current world order and the everchanging Chinese society for its regime survival and security. Wang also offers new discoveries and assessments about the true golden eras of Chinese civilization, explains the great EastWest divergence between China and Europe, and analyzes the China Dream that drives much of current Chinese foreign policy.[a] thoughtprovoking volume Highly recommended. CHOICEAn original, important, wellresearched, and powerfully argued exploration of the virtues and vices of the Chinese state from its ancient past to its likely future. Edward Friedman, University of Wisconsin, MadisonA masterpiece. Wang provides a grand, sweeping, even epic review of two thousand years of Chinese history. His argument is compelling and well documented; the richness and variety of sourcesChinese and Englishhe cites is breathtaking. The book is likely to end up on the reading list of every serious student of Chinas position in the world for many years to come. Daniel C. Lynch, author of Chinas Futures: PRC Elites Debate Economics, Politics, and Foreign PolicyThis imaginative and provocative grand tour of Chinese cosmological order and geopolitical strategy, past and present, is destined to become a classic.
