In this urgently needed and fascinating book, Li uses personal stories and firsthand accounts to help Western readers gain a better understanding of the Chinese perspective. Li shows how China’s approach to internal governance―often confusing to outsiders―is built on a historical and sociocultural bedrock thousands of years in the making. In demystifying contemporary Chinese society, Li helps readers reconceptualise contemporary China and the implications of its growth. He asserts that China’s rise will be beneficial for the global order, holding out the hope that with shared understanding and mutual learning the Chinese and western systems will eventually find a way to peacefully co-exist. Review: China and our future - An extremely interesting book but tendacious in parts. He demonstrates convincingly that Chinese government is obsessed with domestic stability and operates in listening mode so that it can nip contentious matters in the bud. I think he also shows that although the government is by definition autocratic, there is far more internal discussion takes place than we realise before decisions are made. However, although the book was published recently, he completely ignores the impact of the current economic meltdown and how it might affect relations between citizen and state. He is incorrect in that China has never had an expantionist foreign policy. There are plenty of maps available to show the varying sizes of China through the ages. However, his plea for a better working relationship with the US is welcome. There are inevitably going to be issues between a rising state and a hegemon - his attempt to downplay the Thucidides trap is unconvincing - but it is in everybody's interest that these tensions are managed in a mutually beneficial way. The book is worth reading but for those with some knowledge of Chinese history will occasionally chuckle at his interpretation. Review: La perspectiva de China - Muy interesante obra en la que un economista chino, con formación en USA explica la perspectiva china frente al temor del denominado mundo occidental sobre la (más que) potencial hegemonía de China en el mundo. Con tono tranquilizador y didáctico, el autor expone de forma clara la visión de China y los beneficios para el mundo que se derivan del progreso del gigante asiático. Recomiendo su lectura en paralelo a On China de Kissinger, para tener una idea de contraste sobre China, que a menudo se nos presenta parcial. ## Features - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 369,949 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 41 in Economic Geography 865 in Higher Education on Geography 2,044 in Business & Economic History | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 115 Reviews | ## Images ![China's World View: Demystifying China to Prevent Global Conflict - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/518v49mDisL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ China and our future *by P***N on 1 March 2024* An extremely interesting book but tendacious in parts.

Con tono tranquilizador y didáctico, el autor expone de forma clara la visión de China y los beneficios para el mundo que se derivan del progreso del gigante asiático.

CCP and Chinese government are NOT what Western industrial/military/political leaders (mis)lead you to think. This book offered an interesting and very important counterpoint to many Western academia's and think tanks “conventional” wisdom on China. After reading this book you will realize those so called “independent” analyses are merely the reflective sound in an echo chamber. Reading this book is so refreshing and insightful. It will put your thinking into broader, more realistic, more comprehensive perspectives. In addition, I highly recommend Professor Jin Keyu’s book - The New China Playbook, as a companion reading. That book gives comprehensive review of Chinese economic system. With these two books, you will understand modern China, guaranteed! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/539692361-chinas-world-view-demystifying-china-to-prevent-global-conflict](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/539692361-chinas-world-view-demystifying-china-to-prevent-global-conflict) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-06-08*
