Contemporary China: A New Superpower? is a unique textbook introducing the complexity and diversity of China's society, politics, economics, and international affairs, and the multiple ways in which their dynamics corroborate to simultaneously construct and challenge perceptions of China.
Structured thematically in three sections - History, Society and Culture; Politics and Economy; and International Relations - this textbook provides answers to one of the most frequently asked general questions in relation to China. Will it become a new superpower and equal the international power and influence of the United States? Chapters written by some of the most recognized commentators and researchers of China cover a broad range of topics and offer an in-depth analysis of issues in contemporary China, such as the impact of the Tiananmen 1989 events, the economic development of the country, the environmental and demographic crises, social control and propaganda, and the role ofChina in the region and the world.
Introducing students comprehensively to the domestic context and international affairs of China, the book will be particularly useful for undergraduate-level courses in Asian Studies and courses on the history, politics, and international affairs of China and Chinese Studies.

"This textbook addresses the timely question of whether China will become a 21st century superpower. Each of its 21 chapters addresses a key challenge to China's rise - from international relations to politics, economics, and historic and cultural legacies - with a clear empirical question. Together, they equip students to better assess China's future trajectory. Kristina Kironska and Richard Q. Turcsanyi have done valuable work in making a difficult topic accessible to globally minded students around the world."

[This] book provides much needed information in the time of China's growing global influence. In the Taiwan chapter, Dr. Kristina Kironska portrayed a comprehensive picture of the evolution of Taiwan's political system, the economic pathway, as well as the progresses made in human rights. A must read for people who wish to gain understanding about the complexities and realities that Taiwan faces on the quest for establishing its identity with the historical depth tracing back to its Austronesian origin.

Contemporary China: A New Superpower? is a very pertinent and timely overview of what China has become today, both domestically and on the international stage. Authored mainly by Czech and Slovakian established China experts, the collection of chapters that it includes provides fresh views on China's history, politics, economic development, society and international relations. It is a nuanced yet comprehensive analysis of the trajectory of a country that has triggered many ill-founded myths and clichés. On the contrary, this Central European view of China is rich and accurate, putting into perspective the changes that Mao Zedong's Deng Xiaoping's and Xi Jinping's China has gone through to better assess the most likely scenarios for the future. It is a great read -- a must read in my opinion -- not only for scholars and students of China but also for business people and educated men and women at large who are curious to better comprehend a rising power that may not overtake the United States as fast as some had predicted but which is actively contributing to shaping the future of this planet.
