Growing Wealth Crowds Out Oppression - Daniel T. Griswold
By Sophie Beach :: 2005-12-03
From the Cato Institute:
China's emergence from centuries of isolation and stagnation is one of the great stories of our time. The world's most populous nation has rejoined the global economy.
As Bush and other visitors to China see firsthand, hundreds of millions of citizens there are beginning to taste the rewards of middle-class life -- a home or business of their own, a telephone, appliances, a car, foreign travel, college for their kids. We should accept this trend while guarding our national security interests.
The U.S.-China panel further warns that our growing commercial ties to China are sapping America's economic strength. But it completely misses how trade and investment ties benefit both nations.

Paradigm Lost - David M. Lampton
By Sophie Beach :: 2005-11-29
From the Fall 2005 issue of the National Interest:
Because of its size, rate of change, unanticipated success and political coloration, China has become the poster child for those aspects of globalization that threaten the United States. For his part, President Bush has a balanced view and is seeking to keep relations on an even keel. In his May 31 press conference, he noted that "the relationship with China is a very complex relationship, and Americans ought to view it as such." But increasingly, as seen in the reaction to the attempted takeover of Unocal by the Chinese National Offshore Oil Corporation, more Americans are beginning to view China in ominous terms. We have witnessed a marked paradigm shift in thinking about China in the last few years, one that threatens to substitute one flawed framework (a "weak China") with another (a "China on steroids"). An April public opinion poll conducted by the Canada Institute of the Woodrow Wilson International Center found that 31 percent of Americans polled agreed with the statement, "China will soon dominate the world."
These perceptions, often exaggerated, have led many Americans, some members of Congress and the top echelons of the Defense Department--all ignorant of the severe problems China faces--in the directions of economic defensiveness and external stridency.

The China syndrome - Ross Terrill
By Sophie Beach :: 2005-11-16
From the Boston Globe:
As President Bush readies his chopsticks to dine with President Hu Jintao tomorrow, he might ponder whether the rise of China means the eclipse of the United States.
Some Americans see China pushing us aside. Some even grasp at China's rise as a stick to beat the Bush administration. Any rise with the potential to take President Bush down a peg or two is maximized by those for whom Bush's America would not be their first choice as the world's sole superpower. Take a deep breath. The US economy is seven times the size of China's and the Japanese economy is three times China's. Not least, China is a Leninist regime -- the kind that mostly went up in a puff of smoke 15 years ago.

Poll Finds Most Americans See China As Economic Superpower in 10 Years - WSJ
By Sophie Beach :: 2005-11-14
From the Wall Street Journal Online:
A significant number of Americans believe China will be stronger economically than the U.S. in 10 years, according to the latest Harris Interactive poll, and many believe that strength may pose a threat to U.S. interests.
About 70% of U.S. adults say they think China will become an economic superpower in the next 10 years, according to the online poll of 1,822 adults. About 41% think Japan will be as well, followed by the European Union (31%), United Kingdom (25%), India (20%) and Russia (15%).

The US formula for China - Larry Wortzel and Devin T Stewart
By Sophie Beach :: 2005-11-08
From Asia Times:
...Why does the US hope to promote at least the constituent elements of civil society, including freedom of speech, freedom of association, transparency and accountability?
The spread of civil society in East Asia over the past several years has coincided with stability in the security and economic realms. In line with this trend, greater transparency would help reduce the fear of China posing a near-term military threat, ensure that China contributes to the health of the global economy and clarify its long-term ambitions.

A peacefully-rising China is a resolute force in maintaining world peace - Zheng Bijian
By Sophie Beach :: 2005-11-08
On November 3, Zheng Bijian, Executive Vice-President of the Party School of the CPC Central Committee, gave a speech responding to U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Robert Zoellick's remarks on September 21, 2005 titled "Whither China: From Membership to Responsibility?." A translation of Zheng's speech, translated by Ho Cheeng Cheeng of The Straits Times translation desk, and the original Chinese version, are available here:
Many of you would have noted the speech on Sino-American relations made by US Deputy Secretary of State Robert Zoellick on Sept 21. I would also like to focus on the same topic to explain how a peacefully-rising China is a resolute force in maintaining world peace.
(1) It has been proven that having an awareness of the overall situation and being pragmatic are keys to increasing mutual trust and improving ties.
Sino-American ties are important but complicated. In the new situation where China and US are driving global economic development from the manufacturing and consumption ends respectively, active communication between both countries to promote interaction and increase trust is of utmost importance to developing healthy bilateral ties as well as maintaining a peaceful, prosperous world.

The Chinese Shadow - Robert Skidelsky
By Sophie Beach :: 2005-10-30
In the New York Review of Books, Robert Skidelsky writes about two books: Three Billion New Capitalists: The Great Shift of Wealth and Power to the East by Clyde V. Prestowitz, and China, Inc.: How the Rise of the Next Superpower Challenges America and the World by Ted C. Fishman:
The "rise" of China has suddenly become the all-absorbing topic for those professionally concerned with the future of the planet. Will the twenty-first century be the Chinese century, and, if so, in what sense? Will China's rise be peaceful or violent? And how will this affect the United States, the current "hyperpower"? In fact, China has been "rising" for some time (after several hundred years of "fall"), but for many years its claim to notice was obscured by more exciting events. Attention in the 1990s concentrated on the fall of Soviet communism, "globalization," the spread of democracy, and the high-tech revolution. These developments, which left America as the world's sole economic and political superpower, seemed to belie Paul Kennedy's prediction in 1987 of relative US decline and "more of a multipolar system."

Rumsfeld warns against a new 'wall' - Thom Shanker
By Sophie Beach :: 2005-10-20
From the International Herald Tribune:
The U.S. defense secretary, Donald Rumsfeld, urged the next generation of China's Communist leadership on Wednesday to become "a major player" in the global economy by taking steps to strengthen the system and not just reap the financial rewards, and he warned against erecting "another type of Great Wall" restricting free expression and choice.
