About the Content
A country’s development trajectory is shaped by its history, culture, and people. China embarked on its pursuit of modernization in the early 20th century and has eventually forged its own path distinct from that of the West through trials and errors. In Understanding Chinese Modernization, the authors dissect the concept of Chinese modernization, examine its implications, compare it with Western modernization, and elucidate its uniqueness from ideological, historical, economic, and cultural perspectives. The book also outlines the development visions and goals formulated by the central government, introducing China’s latest policies to a global audience.
