China: Power and Perils

Description

China's rapid economic growth and emergence on the world stage in recent years appear as signs of a country that is growing ever more powerful, but this perceived strength belies an insecure government with a tenuous grasp on domestic stability. As China nears a 2012 leadership transition, it is faced with myriad challenges, both internal and external, and understanding these challenges is critical to being able to predict and prepare for the China of the next decade.
