§'One of the most interesting and original thinkers about the rise of China' - Peter Frankopan

A Foreign Affairs Best Book of 2022

A Guardian Best Paperback of July 2022

Its vast infrastructure projects now extend from the ocean floor to outer space, and from Africa's megacities into rural America. China is wiring the world, and, in doing so, rewriting the global order.

As things stand, the rest of the world still has a choice. But the battle for tomorrow will require America and its allies to take daring risks in uncertain political terrain. Unchecked, China will reshape global flows of data to reflect its own interests - and the lives of countless individuals enmeshed in its systems.

Taking readers on a global tour of these emerging battlefields, Jonathan E. Hillman reveals what China's digital footprint looks like on the ground, and explores the dangers of a world in which all routers lead to Beijing.

Rezensionen
Hillman is surely right that Chinese tech makes the world a more dangerous place than we once hoped ... The prospect that [he] sets up is terrifying Emma Duncan Times
"The Digital Silk Road traces China's rise as a digital superpower and provides a sobering analysis of its challenge to American technological leadership, economic competitiveness, and national security. Jonathan Hillman shows how private entrepreneurship and government support have enabled a technologically backward country to acquire leading-edge communications capabilities long thought to be the exclusive preserve of rich democracies. This important and well-crafted book should be required reading for American policy makers and industry leaders." - Minxin Pei, Tom and Margot Pritzker '72 Professor of Government and George R. Roberts Fellow, Claremont McKenna College

"A timely and fascinating account of how China is shaping the digital universe, redrawing the connections that carry data from the ocean floor to outer space, and harnessing the means by which both commerce and warfare will increasingly be conducted, framed in a century-defining contest for control." - Ambassador Charlene Barshefsky, former U.S. trade representative

"Essential reading for understanding one of the greatest geostrategic challenges of our age: China's technological rise and global push to dominate the vital systems upon which militaries, markets, and modern societies depend." - Admiral James Stavridis, sixteenth supreme allied commander at NATO and author of 2034: A Novel of the Next World War

"An urgent, engaging look at China's push to build digital influence and leverage, project by project, as it makes a play for global dominance." - Ambassador Jon M. Huntsman Jr.

"A probing look at China's quest to dominate the technosphere. . . . Hillman refutes the notion that with internet connectivity comes increased freedom. . . . A cogent warning that the West has much work to do if it is to contain Chinese expansion into cyberspace." - Kirkus Reviews

"Hillman warns against complacency and underestimating China's technological ambitions. His writing is lucid and nuanced, and his warning that America needs to wake up is timely and compelling." - Booklist

"Fine prose and telling case studies...take the time to dive deep into this well-written account of the biggest technological transformation of the 21st century." - Financial Times
