'For centuries, it was taken for granted that the West determined
the rules of the global game. In the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries,
it was the Europeans. In the 20th century, it was the Americans.
Now we find ourselves at the dawn of an epochal, worldwide
transformation. For the first time, the global center of power is
shifting towards Asia.'Frank Sieren Future? China! is the first
book that comprehensively examines the influence of a new
superpower on all continents and aspects of life. The book explains
how China is changing the western-dominated world order to a
multi-polar world order - from the perspective of a European who
has been living in China for almost three decades. The book argues
that the times in which the West sets the standards are over. For
the first time in centuries, an Asian country is assuming the
position of being a world power. The Chinese are already
questioning values that we consider to be universal.China, the new
superpower, already contributes to well over 30 percent of the
global economic growth. The author believes China is only at the
beginning of its ascent. He explains how the Middle Kingdom is
expanding its influence throughout the world: whether in the
automobile industry, which China is revolutionizing thanks to
electric mobility and autonomous driving; or in the field of
digitalization and artificial intelligence, where China is on a
level-pegging with the USA; whether in Africa, where China has long
since been investing in mineral deposits, infrastructure but also
in light industry and creating trillions of jobs; or on the scale
of the new Silk Road, a one trillion-dollar project, which reaches
up to Duisburg and for which China has won the support of numerous
Eastern European states.
