China syndrome How to stay friends with China The dangers of rising China The threat of rising China Friends or foe? China and America condemned to be rivals |
Recently, the press is flooded with the warnings related to China rising as economic and military power; see the typical titles on the left, including a respectable The Economist. Somehow, in a public eye, as China is emerging as No.1 here and there, it becomes evident that the process may continue to everywhere. A world with USA being overall No.1 sounds nice, at least to Americans, but what’s wrong with China being overall No.1? Western social analysts admit that Chinese show a passion for education and self-improvement - along with remarkable capacity for discipline and hard work - but that China still must become a more open and democratic society.
