How to Study China (updated Edition)
by Cao Jinqing
About This Novel
How to understand and study China relatively accurately? It is obviously impossible to draw correct conclusions by applying Western perspectives, positions, and opinions to China's reality. However, it is also undesirable to be blindly optimistic only by looking at China's achievements and blindly pessimistic by looking only at China's problems. Professor Cao Jinqing believes that only by putting China's practical problems into the long history can people come up with more objective explanations. The various problems we face, such as the widening gap between rich and poor, big city diseases, new rural construction, expansion of domestic demand and employment, transformation and development, population mobility and urbanization, and the great achievements we have made are all formed in history. They are two sides of the same coin. To solve these problems, we need to make use of traditional cultural resources and governance experience, and learn from the theories and practices of developed countries (such as the United States) and developing countries (such as India) to find the methods and paths that are most suitable for China's national conditions. Professor Cao Jinqing has been committed to studying China's rural issues, urban issues, and development issues. "How to Study China" has contributed his latest thinking, wisdom, and suggestions to us.
