The China Order: Centralia, World Empire, and the Nature of Chinese Power Wang Fei-LingPaperback
What does the rise of China represent, and how should the international community respond? He argues that the Chinese ideation and tradition of political governance and world order--the China Order--is based on an imperial state of Confucian-Legalism as historically exemplified by the Qin-Han polity. With a holistic rereading of Chinese longue dur e history, Fei-Ling Wang provides a simple but powerful framework for understanding the nature of persistent and rising Chinese power and its implications for the current global order.
Since 1949, the People's Republic of China has been a reincarnated Qin-Han polity without the traditional China Order, Claiming a Mandate of Heaven to unify and govern the whole known world or tianxia (all under heaven), the China Order dominated Eastern Eurasia as a world empire for more than two millennia, until the late nineteenth century.
