Ovp: China 10 -P

Book Overview

China has emerged as a global giant while maintaining traditional Chinese beliefs and values. A strong national identity doesn't always land well with other governments and institutions. Editor Noah Berlatsky has thoughtfully compiled several essays that tackle the topic of China in its new role as a world leader. In chapter one, readers will explore the statuses of human rights and Democracy in China. Chapter two discusses economic challenges. Chapter three focuses on whether China is a military threat or not. Chapter four addresses whether China is protecting the environment. Essay sources include Amnesty International, Ying Ma, Ming Wan, Wei Jingsheng, Xiaohui (Anne) Wu, and Juli S. Kim.
