Story
Chinese history is nothing if not messy. Heroes are also villains; prosperity mingles with violence; cultural vibrancy coexists with censorship and repression. Modern China is seen variously as an economic powerhouse, an icon of urbanization, a propaganda state and an aggressive superpower seeking world domination. Jaivin distills this vast history into a sparkling narrative, from mythical origins to the COVID-19 pandemic. It's a story in which China's women, from the earliest warriors to 20th-century suffragettes, receive long overdue attention.

Story
Het moderne China roept in het Westen veel vragen op. Nooit eerder is de economie van China namelijk zo verstrengeld geweest met die van de rest van de wereld. Moeten we het land zien als een bedreiging of als een kans? Vertaalt de economische macht zich onvermijdelijk in politieke en militaire macht? Wordt China het nieuwe wereldrijk?
