"These are the important questions pertaining to the future positioning and direction of the China Model. And these are the questions that Professor Zee seeks to answer in this book. Professor Zee also points out in this book that as a political system the China Model has its weakness, and this is something whoever controls the political power must address. In the last 70-odd years we have seen that the China Model has proven to be the political system most suitable for keeping China united, integrated, stable, strong and prosperous. This book will also give the younger generation of Hong Kong, Taiwan, Mainland China and the world a clearer and more accurate understanding of the China Model, and help thebe proud of or impressed by its civilization, which has been continuously flourishing for an amazingly long period of over 5,000 years and will doubtlessly continue to flourish, influence and contribute to the evolution of world civilization and human ad infinitum!"--Page 4 of cover.
