Böcker av Jinghao Zhou

Will ChinäU.S. relations come back to the normal track? Does the confrontational approach work for ChinäUS relations? This book argues that it is an unrealistic hope to bring ChinäUS relations back to the so-called normal track because the great power competition will be a new normal of ChinäUS relations and the USA will gain more from strategic competition than cooperation in the long run. This book shows that the strategy of ¿great power cooperation through competition¿ is more positive and constructive than the approaches of ¿peaceful coexist¿ and ¿maximum pressure.¿ This book does not intend to provide policy recommendations for governments to consider, but mainly to explain why the great power competition is inevitable and why it is necessary to continuously work with China in some areas through strategic competition. This book alarms the importance of understanding the nature of the Chinese Communist Party during the great power competition and aims to motivate both sides to revisit their foreign policy practice and come up with a better foreign policy strategy of handling ChinäUS relations.

In this book, author Jinghao Zhou uses for the first time the prism of public philosophy to examine Chinese society, modernization, globalization, and democratization as a whole. Challenging conventional thinking in China studies, he examines China systematically in seven aspects: history, ideology, economy, politics, religion, education, and China's future, and does so from both Eastern and Western perspectives. The volume asserts that the remaking of China's public philosophy is they key for the nation to achieve both economic and political prosperity, making the bold argument that this remaking can contribute profoundly not only to China's development, but to international peace and development as well.In Remaking China's Public Philosophy for the Twenty-First Century, author Jinghao Zhou uses for the first time the prism of public philosophy to examine Chinese society, modernization, globalization, and democratization as a whole.
