Beskrivelse
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 China s pandemic diplomacy is not just about responding to a humanitarian crisis, but about challenging the position of the United States as the world s dominant power.#2 Xi s strategy reflects his domestic governance model: a highly centralized Party-state system that takes as its central priority preservation of its own power at home and realization of its sovereignty ambitions abroad. It is a system that grants Xi a unique capability to mobilize and deploy political, economic, and military resources across multiple domains.#3 China s robust response to the coronavirus marked a defining moment in Xi Jinping s almost decade-long drive to reclaim Chinese centrality on the global stage. He and the rest of the Chinese leadership are not satisfied with their country s position within the international system, the values and policy preferences that the system embodies, how power is distributed, and how decisions are made.#4 China s leaders want to reclaim their country s centrality on the global stage. They believe that the last two centuries in which China was not the dominant global economy were an historical aberration. The current period, in which China s economy will soon surpass that of the United States, will mark a return to its rightful place.
