{"product_id":"book-lic1","title":"Should the World Fear China?","description":"For Washington, China is a strategic competitor: the only country with both the will to reshape the world order and, increasingly, the means to do so. For Europe, the People's Republic is a \"partner for cooperation, an economic competitor, and a systemic rival\". For NATO, it is a \"decisive enabler\" of Russia's war against Ukraine. Yet Beijing's image is far more positive in the Global South, of which the PRC considers itself a part.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eZhou Bo's essays unpack China's own view of its role today. The PRC is operating not only in a world becoming less Western, but—more importantly—a West becoming less Western; and the key to its outlook lies in Africa, the Middle East, and the Indo-Pacific as much as in Europe and the White House.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAre Moscow and Beijing really so closely aligned? Where are Sino-Indian relations headed? Is China a new Cold-War foe for the West? Or will economic ties inevitably bring the two powers closer together?","brand":"Tantor","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49864168079664,"sku":"BDlic1","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio CD","offer_id":49864168112432,"sku":"ZElic1","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio MP3-CD","offer_id":49864168145200,"sku":"ZMlic1","price":45.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/lic1-cover.jpg?v=1763045619","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-lic1","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
