Xi Jinping's bold calls for China to lead in the reform of the global governance system suggest that he has just such an ambition. His iron grip on power in the wake of the 2022 Party Congress suggests that he now has the mandate. However, how does he plan to realise it? And what does it mean for the rest of the world?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this compelling book, \u003cem\u003eThe World According to China\u003c\/em\u003e, Elizabeth Economy reveals China's ambitious new strategy to reclaim the country's past glory and reshape the geostrategic landscape in dramatic new ways. Xi's vision is one of Chinese centrality on the global stage, in which the mainland has realised its sovereignty claims over Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the South China Sea. It has deepened its global political, economic, and security reach through its grand-scale Belt and Road Initiative and used its leadership in the United Nations and other institutions to align international norms and values, particularly around human rights, with those of China. It is a world radically different from that of today. The international community needs to understand and respond to the great risks and potential opportunities presented by this transformative vision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAlso available as an audiobook.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47471851765996,"sku":"9781509537495","price":143.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781509537495-the-world-according-to-china.jpg?v=1775259898","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/the-world-according-to-china-by-elizabeth-c-economy-9781509537495","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
