Is China a Menacing Empire?

China's economic impact on the world, through trade, investment and infrastructure projects, is huge and growing rapidly. This has received criticism from officials and politicians in various countries including the US, who accused China of neo-colonialism, setting debt traps in other countries and corruption in overseas Chinese deals. This book examines how justified such accusations are and seeks to comment on them in an objective manner. This book also explores the tensions between China and the US.
