Eponine #79 Xi Jinping's New World Order

A paper on Xi Jinping's dislike by Elizabeth Economy, a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, has been published in Foreign Affairs. Her recent book is "The World According to China".


Here are some points from this excellent paper:

 China already occupies a central position in the international system. It is the world's largest trading force, the largest source of global financing, the world's largest population and army, and the center of global innovation.

 Xi Jinping's understanding of China's centrality means something more than ensuring that the relative weights of China's voice and influence within the existing international system are properly expressed.

 The rise of a Chinese-centered order with its own norms and values.

 Xi Jinping's ambitions for China's centrality on the global stage are exquisitely captured by his Belt and Road Initiative.

 This is a globalized development model unique to China.

 He believes that statements that challenge national sovereignty and social stability are not within the scope of freedom of speech. Beijing believes it has the right to control the speech of every individual in the world.

 Many multinationals eventually succumb to Chinese pressure and adjust the way they do business.

 A position as a driving force for global growth and trade, and an opportunity to give other countries access to a vast market.

 Xi Jinping's initiative asks how China's economy engages with the rest of the world.

 The idea is that China is almost self-sufficient, where innovation, manufacturing, and consumption can all be carried out within its own economy.

 Stronger management of the existing international architecture of the global system.

 We are openly calling for China to lead the reform of the global governance system, that is, to change the values and norms that underpin the international system to be consistent with those of China.

 China's approach is tactical and strategic.

 A long-term strategy to transform broader global norms in ways that strengthen national control over individual rights and freedoms in areas such as Internet governance, human rights and technical standards.

 I want to reorganize the world order.

 The last two centuries, when China was not the dominant world economy, was a historic anomaly.

 China traditionally wants to enjoy the right to the world's most important powers, but does not want to enjoy full responsibility.

 Xi Jinping's ability to realize his ambitions depends on the interaction of many factors, on the one hand, the continued vitality of the Chinese economy and the military, the support of other senior leaders and the Chinese people, and, on the other hand.

From the above points, it seemed that it was impossible to suppress China.

What I think most strongly in that democracy is not strong is that China has abolished the one country, two systems system and put Hong Kong under the control of the Chinese system entirely.

The people of Hong Kong resisted violently, but China did not even kill the resisting citizens to curb the resistance.

They made the law, enforced it, set up a mechanism to operate on it, and did it completely.

It's not a democracy-based law, but it's a law created by the Chinese Communist Party to govern China.

The Myanmar army (Tatmadaw) did not have to kill the resisting civilians.
Since there is a law, they should have just proceeded with the procedure of arrest, detention, trial, and judgment based on the law.

It's not too late now, so they should declared that they would act purely by law, and modeled on the way China held down Hong Kong, and if anything was said, they would say "imitated procedure in Hong Kong".

It was reported that Panasonic has agreed to outsource the production of small and medium-sized TVs to TCL, a major Chinese electric company.

I understood that this would be a frame in Xi Jinping's tactical and strategic paintings and would contribute to China's reorganization of the world order.


It is not easy to imagine that democracy will dominate the world.
