China has emerged as an economic powerhouse (projected to
have the largest economy in the world in a little over a
decade) and is taking an ever-increasing role on the world
stage. China's Rise: Challenges and Opportunities is
designed to help the United States better comprehend the
facts and dynamics underpinning China's rise, which is an
understanding that becomes more and more important with each
passing day. Additionally, the authors suggest actions both
countries can take that will not only maximize the
opportunities for China's constructive integration into the
international community but also help form a domestic
consensus that will provide a stable foundation for such
policies. Filled with facts for policymakers, this
much-anticipated book's narrative-driven, accessible style
will appeal to the general reader. The expert judgments in
this book paint a picture of a China confronting domestic
challenges that are in many ways side effects of its
economic successes, while simultaneously trying to take
advantage of the foreign policy benefits of those same
successes. China's Rise: Challenges and Opportunities from
The China Balance Sheet Project, a joint, multiyear project
of the Center for Strategic and International Studies and
the Peterson Institute, discusses China's military
modernization; China's increasing soft power influence in
Asia and around the world; China's policy toward Taiwan;
domestic political development; Beijing's political
relations with China's provincial and municipal authorities;
corruption and social unrest; rebalancing China's economic
growth; the exchange rate controversy; energy and the
environment; industrial policy; trade disputes; and
investment issues. The book's introduction and conclusion
address additional issues, such as key trends in China's
political decision making and its impact on US interests.
