Description:

China's Rise: Challenges and Opportunities, particularly timely and important in light of the global economic crisis and the changes going on in the world financial architecture, examines the dynamics underpinning China¿s rise and suggests US policy responses to further encourage China¿s constructive integration into the international community. The authors propose that the US support reconfiguration of the global architecture to incorporate China into the discussion of development of international rules, and what it means to be a ¿responsible stakeholder.¿
