James Mann Bücher

Wir versuchen immer wieder, uns und andere davon zu überzeugen, dass China sich derzeit ändert und die politische Liberalisierung im Reich der Mitte Einzug halten wird. James Mann übt Kritik an dieser naiven Sichtweise und entwirft neben der Möglichkeit der Demokratisierung und Liberalisierung oder einem anderweitigen Umsturz der Regierung Chinas ein drittes mögliches Szenario: das Verharren der Volksrepublik in alten Strukturen. Nur wenn wir dieses Szenario berücksichtigen, können wir effektiv entscheiden, wie künftig mit China umzugehen ist.
