<br/><br/> What role does China play in the Western imagination? The rise of China as an alternative model to Western liberalism has created a fear that developing countries will stray from Western standards of democracy, transparency and human rights. This book reveals how the West's own past, hopes and fears shape the way it thinks about China.
