The Replication State of China: Elite Cognitive Monopoly, Replicated Obedience, and the Architecture of Totalitarian Control

By: Choesang, Yeshe

Drawing on political theory, critical security studies, global political economy and technological risk scholarship, The Replication State of China situates authoritarian replication within wider debates on sovereignty, regime legitimacy and the reconfiguration of global order. The study interrogates the ethical and civilisational consequences of systemic replication - not merely as an industrial or technological practice, but as an epistemic instrument of governance and a strategy of authoritarian resilience - reshaping international norms, weaponising interdependence, eroding institutional trust and recalibrating global security architectures. Readers encounter a theoretically grounded, empirically informed and analytically rigorous monograph that reconceptualises authoritarian power as a replicative system - adaptive, co-optative and repressive - capable of transnational projection, digital consolidation and structural entrenchment across the twenty-first century.
