Reequilíbrios II

A edição desta semana da Economist traz um dossier imperdível sobre a China. Eis algumas pistas interessantes:

"China's growth and increasing confidence is also beginning to affect the way is behaves on the world stage. If only tentatively so far, it is beginning to act like a big power. A country that once preferred to stay clear of multilateral diplomacy is now at the center of multilateral efforts to persuade North Korea to abandon its nuclear-weapons programmes."

"Political reform matters. Without it, it is hard to imagine how China could make the kind of stable transition to democracy that Taiwan has achieved; and an unstable China is more likely to pose threat to the world".
