Publisher Info
Brookings Institution Press. InquiryThe rapid pace and grand scale of China's rise have produced a heady mixture of wonder and consternation in the West. Is China on track to become a superpower? What would that mean for the rest of the world? Angang approaches these questions through analysis of three major dimensions of China's rise: its overall economic and social development; advances in education, science, and technology (including alternative energy); and the likely complications posed by resource scarcity, environmental degradation, and climate change. China in 2020 presents a native Chinese perspective on the challenges and opportunities that Beijing will face as its global footprint expands and how this nation will impact global economic growth, foreign direct investment flows, energy consumption, and carbon dioxide emissions.
