Produktbeschreibung

As seen on Bloomberg TV's "Taking Stock with Pimm Fox" "Dr. Lionel Vairon is a seasoned French diplomat, journalist and expert on international relations. In his new book "China Threat? The Challenges, Myths and Realities of China's Rise," he discusses the propensity of the West to engage in "China-bashing campaigns." - International Business News "Is China a threat? Not by nature, but perhaps by reaction." - Forbes "...presents some unique analysis for this ongoing discussion." - China Daily From the long-term threat of nuclear war between the United States and China, to the disappearance of the African elephant due to Chinese demand for ivory, each week brings a new round of critique and denunciation of the risks China poses to the stability of the entire planet. While critics raise a certain number of fundamental questions that bear asking about this nascent superpower, the answers put forth are usually based on ideological or economic considerations. Lionel Vairon systematically challenges these views in this updated edition of China Threat? With an incisive review of China's economic strategy, deployment of resources, national defence, political reform, ethnicity and religion, terrorism, and developments in human rights, Vairon amply demonstrates that China poses no threat to the world. On the contrary, China Threat? shows that China's peaceful rise should be a matter of positive news across the globe.
