After a meteoric rise, China's once inexorable growth has come to a
screeching halt. With it ends China's dream of establishing a new
tianxia ('harmonious order') in Asia with China at its centre.
Salvatore Babones provides an up-to-date assessment of China's
economic problems and how they are undermining China's challenge to
the Western-dominated world order. As China's neighbours and many
of its own most talented people look to the United States to ensure
their security and prosperity, global power is slowly but surely
consolidating in a twenty-first century American Tianxia. A closely
argued antidote to defeatist accounts of Western decline, this book
tells the story of how liberal individualism has become the
leitmotif of the American Tianxia, an emerging world-system in
which people of all nationalities seek a share in the economic,
cultural, and political system that is America writ large.
