    China's development would have astonished those who knew the country as a fading, disorganized power in the nineteenth century. Or would it? Even then, as expert sinologists Schell and Delury recount, Chinese leaders and thinkers were working for a future of fuqiang-wealth and power. Focusing on eleven key individuals, from Wei Yuan to Liu Xiaobo, the authors cast recent Chinese history as a determined effort to restore national greatness. This event will be moderated by New Yorker correspondent Evan Osnos.

    I never understand the ideal of intolerance to other political systems, if it works adopt it, if it doesn't drop it, or take whats good from all systems and discard what doesn't work, why the us against them mentality?.

      It's cold war mentality. Ussr and the us were competing in system, and in the end, ussr collapsed. Around that time many American scholars believe it's the end of humanity - that American system is the best and there cannot be anything better. Which is proved to be a joke at this day and age. But the point is that they still have this mentality
