Constructing China : Clashing Views of the People's Republic

多年來，中國的經濟和政治崛起激起了世界範圍內的恐懼，甚至是偏執狂。但是，我們如何獲得有關中國的信息，以及如何真正產生對中國的了解？

《建設中國》詳細探討了我們建立中國知識的方式。高摩波拒絕了經驗統計的所謂客觀性，並質疑西方自由民主與中國威權主義之間二分法的假設，剖析了中國評論員的政治議程和概念框架，並敦促左右派人士謹慎批評他們對國家的政治，經濟和歷史的看法。

For years now, China’s economic and political rise has provoked fear—even paranoia—around the world. But how do we get our information about China, and how are our understandings of it actually produced?

Constructing China presents a detailed examination of the means through which our knowledge of China is created. Rejecting the supposed objectivity of empirical statistics and challenging the assumption of a dichotomy between Western liberal democracy and Chinese authoritarianism, Mobo Gao dissects the political agenda and conceptual framework of commentators on China and urges those on the right and the left alike to be carefully critical of their own views on the nation’s politics, economics, and history.
