Beskrivelse
As the worlds second-largest economy, China is extending its influence across the globe with the complicity of democratic nations.Joanna Chiu has spent a decade tracking Chinas propulsive rise, from the political aspects of its multi-billion-dollar New Silk Road global investment project to its growing sway over foreign countries and multilateral institutions through United Front efforts.For too long, Western societies have mishandled or simply ignored Beijings actions, out of narrow self-interest. Over time, Chiu argues, decades of willful misinterpretation have become harmful complicity in the toxic diplomacy, human rights abuses and foreign interference seen from China today.Engaging chapters transport readers to a frozen lake in Russia, protests in Hong Kong, underground churches in Beijing, and exile Uyghur communities in Turkey, exposing Beijings high-tech surveillance and aggressive measures, which result in human rights violations against those who challenge its power.The new world disorder documented inChina Unboundlays out its disturbing implications for global stability, prosperity, and civil rights everywhere.
