Viewed from the perspective of competition, few nations have run the race as well as China in the modern era, spurring endless speculation and debate about its future role on the global stage, both politically and economically. Yet, despite its incredible pace of change, China continues to carry echoes of its past.
China juggles its memories and territorial histories and relationships on many fronts as it faces the future:
as the defender of an apparently irrelevant revolutionary ideology,
as a new kind of regional powerhouse,
as the ambiguous heart of a global diaspora,
as one of the world’s major new competitors for shrinking supplies of fossil fuels, and
as the present guardian of an unprecedented amount of foreign exchange and investment.
Jonathan Spence explores how history has shaped modern China. His extraordinary insights into China’s unfolding future make him an invaluable presenter for senior business leaders and audiences seeking deep understanding of this emerging global power.
