Summary
Modern China and the New World focuses upon a few of the main topics associated with China's recent rise to global prominence. Professor Randall Doyle writes about the impact that China will have on the geopolitical balance throughout the Asia-Pacific region. He also touches upon the effect that China's new power will have on U.S.-China relations in the 21st century. Finally, Professor Doyle writes about the continued role and influence that Dr. Henry Kissinger has upon interpreting and guiding modern U.S. policy concerning China, the Asia- Pacific region and America's role in global affairs in the 21st century.
Professor Boshu Zhang writes about China's continuing struggles with Tibet and the Dalai Lama. This topic has remained extremely sensitive for the Chinese leadership. He addresses the difficulties and contraditions existing within the Chinese Communist Party on the issue of Tibetan autonomy. Finally, Professor Zhang writes about the existing political system within China today. And, the future possibility of some democratic reforms occuring and transforming Chinese society itself. However, Zhang does indicate that the democratic process in China will be facing several domestic challenges and roadblocks along the way toward achieving a political reformation.
Professors Randall Doyle and Boshu Zhang have addressed these extremely important topics within their respective chapters by incorporating not just tradtional reading and research of their chosen subjects, but by also intergrating their personal experiences from living and traveling within China.
