| Summary / Abstract (Note) | One of the most remarkable developments in contemporary international affairs is the rapid shift of outsiders' perception of China. Not too long ago, people believed the East Asian behemoth was on an inexorable path to glory and power.11. See Martin Jacques, When China Rules the World: The End of the Western World and the Birth of a New Global Order (New York: Penguin 2012); Daniel A. Bell, The China Model: Political Meritocracy and the Limits of Democracy (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 2015).

In the last few years, however, this view has changed dramatically; China no longer appears to be a confident great power progressing in the direction of greater openness and more reform. Instead, the country, ruled by an insecure, repressive, and inward-looking regime, has embarked on a path that is foreclosing possibilities of its evolution into a responsible great power with a more humane domestic political system. |
