China Surpassing: The Promise and Progress of a Great Civilization/中国超越：一个"文明型&# [Chinese]

By Zhang Weiwei

China is returning to the pinnacle of the world, drawing upon the unique, uninterrupted genes of its five-thousand-year civilization and the experiences of a hundred nations. 中国带着世上惟一不断的五千年文明基因与百国经验，重返世界之巅 China Surpassing is the author's third analytical work following his visits to a hundred countries. Building upon the foundations laid in China's Impact and China's Rise, the author examines how China has surpassed the West, represented by the United States, and the Western model across various domains. These include economic aggregate, citizen assets, social welfare, technological innovation, and institutional arrangements. In many of these areas, China has already overtaken the United States; in others, it is poised to do so in the near future; and in the remaining areas, persistent efforts may ultimately lead to China surpassing the West as well. Among these, the most significant is undoubtedly the surpassing in institutional arrangements-that is, in the political system. Furthermore, from the perspective of a "civilization-state," the author explores how Chinese discourse has transcended Western discourse, elucidating the Chinese path, the Chinese model, China's institutional arrangements, and the underlying philosophies. He demonstrates the profound rationale behind many of China's approaches. As a great nation that has sustained its civilization for five thousand years without interruption, China maintained a leading position in the world throughout most of history. Its lag behind the West is a phenomenon of the modern era. Since the modern age, China's rapid "catch-up" and surpassing of the West stem from the overall success of the Chinese path and the Chinese model. This success is rooted in a deep understanding of the essence of Chinese civilization, the inheritance of China's red traditions, and the assimilation of beneficial international experiences. With the pride and vision of a "civilization-state," China is achieving the goals of its century-long struggle and returning to the pinnacle of the world. 《中国超越》是作者走访百国后的第三本思考型著作，在《中国触动》和《中国震撼》的基础上，作者探讨了中国对以美国为代表的西方和西方模式的超越，包括在经济总量、百姓资产、社会保障、科技创新、制度安排等领域的超越。在这些领域中，中国在不少方面已经超越了美国，在许多方面不久将超越美国，在另外一些方面，通过继续不断的努力，终也可能超越，而其中有意义的，无疑是中国的制度安排，也就是政治制度方面的超越。此外，作者还从"文明型国家"的视角，探讨了中国话语对西方话语的超越，解释了中国道路、中国模式和中国制度安排及其背后的理念，论证了中国许多做法的深层次的合理性。 中国是世界上维系了五千年文明而没有中断的伟大国家，历史上长期领先于世界，落后于西方是近代发生的事。而自现代以来，中国迅速"赶超"西方的背后是中国道路和中国模式的总体成功，这种成功源于对中华文明底蕴的把握、对中国红色传统的承袭，以及对国际有益经验的借鉴。中国正带着一个"文明型国家"的光荣与梦想，实现中国人百年奋斗的目标，重返世界之巅。
