Description of China Restored |
In a text that is as thought-provoking as it is well informed, "China Restored: The Middle Kingdom Looks to 2020 and Beyond" challenges the perception of China as an international threat. Eric C. Anderson, a player in Washington's China policy debates with deep intelligence access to Chinese sources, argues that Beijing is, in fact, seeking to foster a stable global environment conducive to her economic development and a regional hierarchy based on legitimate political authority rather than coercion. Anderson points to three principal factors that will drive Chinese behaviour over the next 10 years: the Chinese Communist Party's desire to be recognized as a responsible member of the international community; China's effort to equip, train, and maintain a modern military; and, Beijing's campaign to 'sell' her governance model - from economic development to serving a domestic constituency - as a direct competitor to Washington's version of liberal democracy. Asserting that Beijing is poised to serve as Washington's 'peer competitor', Anderson offers insights as to what can be expected from China in the future, including facilitating U.S. nuclear non-proliferation efforts and participating in international peacekeeping operations.
