En los últimos años China se ha convertido en una verdadera superpotencia de la IA y el único verdadero contrapeso nacional a Estados Unidos en esta tecnología emergente. Por ello, la forma en que estos dos países decidan competir y cooperar podría llegar a tener consecuencias dramáticas para la economía y la gobernabilidad mundial.

Was passiert wirklich in China? – China-Korrespondentin Lea Sahay bietet in diesem Hörbuch exklusive Einblicke in Politik, Wirtschaft und den chinesischen Traum. Lange schien Pekings neo-kommunistische Politik aufzugehen. Die Verbindung von Wachstum, Nationalismus und sozialer Kontrolle sah aus wie eine erfolgreiche Alternative zu westlicher Demokratie und Marktwirtschaft. Doch heute zeigt die Fassade der zweitgrößten Wirtschaftsmacht der Welt Risse: Der Tech-Boom ist vorbei, die Immobilienblase geplatzt und das Gesundheitssystem kollabiert.

Many studies of China's relations with and influence on Southeast Asia tend to focus on how Beijing has used its power asymmetry to achieve regional influence. Yet, scholars and pundits often fail to appreciate the complexity of the contemporary Chinese state and society, and just how fragmented, decentralized, and internationalized China is today. In The Ripple Effect, Enze Han argues that a focus on the Chinese state alone is not sufficient for a comprehensive understanding of China's influence in Southeast Asia. Instead, we must look beyond the Chinese state, to non-state actors from China.

Wer steckt hinter den Unternehmensgiganten aus China? Sie erobern die Weltmärkte, positionieren China als digitale Supermacht und prägen die entscheidenden Zukunftsindustrien.

Was sind das für Leute, die in Frankreich Weinberge und in Europa Fußballvereine oder Immobilien kaufen?

In China's Next Act, Scott M. Moore re-envisions China's role in the world, with a focus on sustainability and technology. Moore argues that these increasingly pressing, shared global challenges are reshaping China's economy and foreign policy, and consequently, cannot be tackled without China.

If China uses enough firepower to overwhelm Taiwan’s defenses, will what is left be worth having? China’s leader has now decided the answer is - yes. But Taiwan will only be the beginning. Once its absorption is complete, China has other ambitions. Like the return of about one million square kilometers seized from China by Russia in the 1860s.

When the bloody Chinese Civil War concluded in 1949, two Chinas were born. Mao’s Communists won and took China’s mainland; Chiang Kai-shek’s Nationalists fled to Taiwan island. Since then, China and Taiwan have drifted into being separate political and cultural entities. Taiwan is now a flourishing democracy and an economic success story: just one of its companies produces over 90 per cent of the semiconductors that power the world’s economy. It is a free and vibrant society.

National Public Radio's Beijing correspondent Rob Gifford recounts his travels along Route 312, the Chinese Mother Road, the longest route in the world's most populous nation. Based on his successful NPR radio series, China Road draws on Gifford's 20 years of observing first-hand this rapidly transforming country, as he travels east to west, from Shanghai to China's border with Kazakhstan. As he takes listeners on this journey, he also takes them through China's past and present while he tries to make sense of this complex nation's potential future.

Throughout the post-Mao reform era, China has championed the principle of sovereign state control, which holds that states should not intervene in the affairs of other states. Yet, as Tim Nicholas Rühlig argues in China's Foreign Policy Contradictions, in recent years they have not actually acted this way. Chinese foreign policy actions fail to match up with official rhetoric, and these inconsistencies - in combination with China's growing power - will have dramatic effects on the future shape of international order.
