    Series Statement: World Political Theories
    Content: China is a rising economic and political power. But what is the message of this rise? Tongdong Bai addresses this increasingly pressing question by examining the rich history of political theories and practices from China's past, and showing how it impacts upon the present. Part of Zed?s World Political Theories series, this ground-breaking work offers a remarkable insight into the political history and thought of a nation that is becoming increasingly powerful on the world stage
