'Just in case you thought there was no internal debate about China's future, here is evidence to the contrary.' --- Chris Patten
Very few things that happen in our lifetime will be remembered after we are dead. But China's rise is different: like the rise and fall of Rome or the Soviet Empire, its after-effects will echo down the generations to come.
So why is it that we know almost nothing about the thinkers in China who are shaping their country's future? What kind of country are they dreaming of? How do they see their influence in the world? We might know that half of the world's clothes and footwear have a 'Made in China' label and that our economies are inextricably linked with China's --- but what do we know about China's experiments with democracy; about its anti-globalisation movement; about its plans to deal with America as its own influence grows across the globe?
Mark Leonard provides a fascinating and unexpected perspective on the debates raging within Chinese society today and shows us just how radically China's rise will change the nature of our world.

这本书两年前刚出版的时候,在西方引起一阵热议。当年正好赶上北京奥运,中国成为那一年西方媒体最注目的焦点,我记得好几本杂志都在向读者推荐一些介绍中国的书籍,而这本What Does China Think?永远都是榜上有名。 这两天翻完这本薄薄的小册子,发现确实写得很好。作者Mark ...
评分《What Does China Think》 其实应该让中国学者来写,因为它讲的是中国思想界的状况(如左右之争什么的),但问题是中国学者要不就是“只缘身在此山中”,要不就是讳莫如深。该书算是西方看中国系列书籍中较有分量的一本,各大报章争相介绍,也算风行一时。Mark Leonard是欧洲...
评分知道这本书是看到有条新闻说欧盟外长Catherine Ashton在看这本书,于是在kindle上下了一章看。开头第一句说"世界上存在一个中国这件事吧,就挺让西方闹心的。”还挺逗,所以接着看。 Mark兄第一次去中国,到社科院见了王洛林。作者自我介绍说他所在的欧洲外交政策委员会有20名...

评分要了解中国为什么是看外国人眼里的中国而不是从中国人角度了解中国?! 当局者不一定都迷,不过旁观者角度有时候可以带来点新思维。
还是很有参考价值,只是很多材料,不知道他是如何拿到的,或者全都是道听途说。只不过,信息量真的很大。
评分China’s intellectuals are turning away from the West and theorizing an alternative modernity
评分作者是ECFR的director,讲中国模式,从内到外,其实中国的问题在最高决策层来说,一直在修正,是One party中走得很谨慎的。但中产的崛起和笨拙的官僚和materialism一联姻就变成了怪胎。且看模式如何走下去吧。
评分恕我无知,我现在才真正明白为啥老说THU是新左的老巢了。其实这本书不完全可算作中国知识分子的系谱,但是对于我这等无知的人还是很有用的,它至少让我知道知识分子们在干什么,在怎么影响着这个国家。有人说这本说讲“新左”多了一些,但事实上也正是因为“新左”的力量的壮大。想起一个国关学长说的知识分子的三个轨道制,一二轨的知识分子必然得到政府更多的关注,像秦晖老师这样三轨自由知识分子只能谦虚的自称“只重学理”。其实这本书更多的才是关注的中国的现代性的问题,关于经济改制的,社会民主的主要以中国知识分子聚焦的话题仔细考察的是这个国家。书中多次提到重庆,不知几年前的轻轨票价听证会竟是一场政治试验。我本还以为政治制度的全国大同。还有很多想说,待笔记。
评分经济与政治,知道了挺多八卦的
