yongnian Zheng's discussion on the road to power is not simply how the rise of China

A few years ago China had hit a documentary on the rise of great powers, raised public opinion about the moment. It certainly has a lot of historical background, China's economy to take off, international status on the rise at the same time, it also truthfully reflects the hearts of Chinese people's doubts and confusion – with the deepening of reform and opening up, China's prosperity, be prosperous and Hong ChongRoad, the way, how can we go strong, robust. Remember the documentary episode which says: "great powers, must occupy an important position in the world economy, political stability, the Government and the mutual trust of the masses, internal cohesion, the national system of sound sth In addition, should be upheld on the ideological and institutional innovation, must not be tied, once rigid, rise of great powers, long-ShengNo failure is impossible to talk about. "It's all make suggestions creates, people are not a stranger to similar topics in recent years most of the books are held the same view. Compare with, yongnian Zheng's discussion on the road to power is not simply how the rise of China star wars the old republic, or essays on how to display demeanour – limited to this, since around the "reconstruction of the order", so in the book,We can read that economic globalization "under globalization of Western and non-Western", "globalization and national identity-building" and other articles, you can read a reflection of international security "9? 11 events, and international relations in the 21st century "comment, you can also read that China's diplomatic strategy of" Sino-US relations and regional order in East Asia's dilemma "," Chinese new geopolitical pattern and its application"," How to achieve great power diplomacy "," keep G8 and G2 turned heads, the rise of China outlet in Asia ", a series of suggestions. 　　Of course, Sino-US relations, China's Asian geopolitical and China's internal development-oriented focus, throughout. Want to come, carefully, and always reading the newspaper readers of yongnian Zheng, this name is not certainly strange. The current SingaporeInternationally renowned scholars, Director of the East Asian Institute, National University, research on Chinese politics, international relations and social, has a fairly extensive influence in the international scope. Over the years, in addition to political essays and columns from time to time to read articles, Professor Cheng's book has been published in domestic reform and its enemies, the Chinese model: experiences and difficulties, the defending social rights, the ConventionRevival of nationalism: the nation State where to go? , The unfinished reform such as this, and one with the road to great power within the same series, forthcoming there under the three-step reform in China, the China's "federal system": restructuring of the central-local relations and power, and the technology to empower: China Internet, such as the State and society. This leads to great powerThe road, assembling his decade-long discussion on "China and the reconstruction of the order of the world" problem articles, components quite heavy. Today the world is not the world of yesterday. China to become a big country, is in the new world order in the country, has enough strength to bear the responsibility and role of big country, is to make the world a sincerely subscribe to and accepted by big country, is based on their valueSystem of power in the world. The problem is that on the journey to power, China has also missed a very important component. When a reporter asked whether China problems study, yongnian Zheng has sighed: "China's most miserable is to have its own knowledge system, I really want to do something in this regard. "In his view, Germany, and France, and Italy has its own body of knowledge and transformation of ChinaMagnitude in Europe several times, but no ability to indicate to the world himself; the lack of awareness itself, explain their knowledge system is never out of the historical cycle in China, successful transition to the crux of modern society. 　　Thus, in addition to his research did not forget to give yourself a great mission--trying to construct a non-Western theories to explain, interpret, Asia. Perhaps theRoad to power is Mr Zheng efforts at a time of such an attempt. However, Professor Cheng has not used many Western theoretical paradigm to study "China and the reconstruction of the world order", he described only as a spectator to restore events, phenomena, explanations of the world. As he said: "when ideology and reality when not correlated, need to be amended is ideology, rather than sacrificing reality."Learning research, most fear is subjective swtor power leveling, the conclusions drawn are also most likely fur isolation, divorced from reality. As to how "the way to power", where path how to row, yongnian Zheng's view is clear: China should shoulder their responsibilities. But our responsibility to and its ability to adapt. "China is a rising country. DangSo, if you want to rise, it must bear international responsibility. What I mean is that China should assume it should bear part of the responsibility, promised not too much to this responsibility. Excessive shoulder this responsibility is not sustainable, it is very important. "In particular," international liability for sustainability depend entirely on their own can have sustainable development. "" Whether toWestern countries, is also unrealistic promises of those responsibilities to the developing countries, is not a sustainable practice. "" Commensurate responsibility on the international and domestic sustainable development, should not exceed the level of domestic development to international responsibility. "To do this, he repeatedly reiterated that China's diplomatic position, you must first locate their national interests. Not beingThe concept of national interests, it does not have the correct foreign. China should have great diplomatic also must develop its own concept of international responsibility. 　　With the rise of China, China not only to pursue their national interests in the international arena, but also must take responsibility for the entire world system. After the economies of scale achieved the world's second, in domestic public opinion power of narrative in the heat, of Mr CHENG this collection, Perhaps from another point of reminding us how to real-world perspective to view the era in which we and the world, in a more rational reflection on China's next path.
