The Rise Of China

A chopping sea is now raised in the Asia-Pacific region, centering on the Korean Peninsula. This is an era of G2, the United States and China. If symbolically mentioned, now is the time of sharp confrontation between the soaring 'spread eagle' of America and the rising 'yellow dragon' of China, we can say. Around 1820s, China(Ch'ing dynasty) was a really global power of both wealth and population, but following the 1st Opium War in 1840, it continued to be wildly attacked by the powers in the West and then Japan in East Asia, and became virtually the so-called 'semi-colony' of them, being scornfully laughed at as would-be 'a sick man in East Asia' or 'paper tiger' as always. In 1978, Deng Xiaoping chose a drastical policy of 'reform and opening', which might have been said to be a turning point for the present China as is widely known. This book, "The Rise of China" is a narrative non-fiction of romance of two college teachers in love, who traveled together across China, Taiwan, and finally Hong Kong and Macau, discussing sincerely the current global issues in the Northeastern Asia with other intellectualls as well in search of the answers for them.
