‎Chinas African Challenges.‎

‎New York: Routledge 2009. 270 S. Top Zustand, Softcover/Paperback, Neupreis in Euro: 18,95‎

‎China?s relations with African nations have changed dramatically over the past decade. African oil now accounts for more than 30% of China?s oil imports, and China is Africa?s second-largest single-country trading partner, as well as a leading lender and infrastructure investor on the continent. Yet these developments are bringing challenges, not only for Africa and the West, but for China as well. This book examines these challenges, considering Africa as a testing ground, both for Chinese companies ?going global? and for a Chinese government that is increasingly having to deal with issues beyond its shores and immediate control. What does China need to do to protect and develop its African engagements, against a backdrop of mounting African expectations, concerns from Western actors in Africa, and the rival presence of other emerging actors? How sustainable is the momentum that China has established in its African ventures? China?s adaptations to the challenges it is facing in Africa are examined and assessed, as are the implications of these changes for China, Africa and the West. China?s African engagements are certainly changing Africa, but could they also be changing China? Inhalt: Contextualising Today's Sino-African Relations -- The evolution of the PRC's African interests -- Contemporary Sino-African relations -- Resource requirements -- The search for new markets -- Strategic considerations - the politics of developing-world alliances -- How much do China's engagements in Africa matter? -- The Great Tazara Railway Project: China's largest-ever foreign aid project -- Managing China's African Relations -- State support for Chinese business abroad -- Key party and state elements involved in China's African engagements -- Key entities involved in China's commercial engagements with Africa -- Key agents supporting China's political engagements in Africa -- Key agents supporting China's cultural engagements in Africa -- Competing interests and policy coordination -- Adapting to the Challenges of Maturing Commercial Relations -- The challenges of commerce: 'business is business' -- The Chinese state considers the commercial challenges -- Developing companies in developing countries -- Facing the challenges ahead -- Case Study: Zambia -- Adapting to the Political Challenges of Commercial Relations -- Determining the meaning of 'energy security' -- Determining the limits of sovereignty -- Managing peacekeeping and arms control -- Increasing popular engagement -- Operating multilaterally as well as bilaterally -- Assessing China's responses -- Case Study: Sudan -- Dealing with the Implications -- China's impact on international terms of engagement with Africa -- Non-African powers react to Sino-African relations -- African responses to China -- Political cooperation around commercial competition: the challenges ahead -- Engaging China on Africa -- Engaging Africa. - China s relations with African nations have changed dramatically over the past decade.

‎Ein farbenprächtiger Roman über einen maßlosen Kaiser von China und einen englischen Uhrmacher, über die Vergänglichkeit und das Geheimnis, dass nur das Erzählen über die Zeit triumphieren kann. Der mächtigste Mann der Welt, Qiánlóng, Kaiser von China, lädt den englischen Automatenbauer und Uhrmacher Alister Cox an seinen Hof. Der Meister aus London soll in der Verbotenen Stadt Uhren bauen, an denen die unterschiedlichen Geschwindigkeiten der Zeiten des Glücks, der Kindheit, der Liebe, auch von Krankheit und Sterben abzulesen sind. Schließlich verlangt Qiánlóng, der gemäß einem seiner zahllosen Titel auch alleiniger Herr über die Zeit ist, eine Uhr zur Messung der Ewigkeit. Cox weiß, dass er diesen ungeheuerlichen Auftrag nicht erfüllen kann, aber verweigert er sich dem Willen des Gottkaisers, droht ihm der Tod. Also macht er sich an die Arbeit. ++++ Christoph Ransmayr wurde am 20. März 1954 in Wels, Oberösterreich geboren. Er wuchs in der Nähe von Gmunden am Traunsee auf.

‎Raphals Lisa‎

‎Divination And Prediction In Early China And Ancient Greece‎

‎8vo, 496pp. Divination was an important and distinctive aspect of religion in both ancient China and ancient Greece, and this book will provide the first systematic account and analysis of the two side by side. Who practised divination in these cultures and who consulted it? What kind of questions did they ask, and what methods were used to answer those questions? As well as these practical aspects, Lisa Raphals also examines divination as a subject of rhetorical and political narratives, and its role in the development of systematic philosophical and scientific inquiry. She explores too the important similarities, differences and synergies between Greek and Chinese divinatory systems, providing important comparative evidence to reassess Greek oracular divination.‎

‎Wisdom and CunningKnowing Words: Wisdom And Cunning In The Classical Traditions Of China And Greece (Myth And Poetics)‎

‎8vo, Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Minor shelf wear. Clean, unmarked pages. xviii, 304 p., 23 cm. <br> "For the Greeks, the craft of Odysseus and the wisdom of Athena were examples of metis, an elusive cast of mind that ranged from wisdom and forethought to craft and cunning. Although it informed many aspects of Greek society, metis was all but absent from the language of Greek philosophy. Invoking indigenous Chinese debates, Lisa Raphals here examines the role and significance of metic intelligence in classical Chinese philosophy, literature, history, and military strategy."‎

‎Daoism and Anarchism: Critiques of State Autonomy in Ancient and Modern China‎

‎8vo, br. ed. focuses on anti-statist critiques in ancient and modern China and demonstrates that China does not have an unchallenged authoritarian political culture. Treating anarchism as a critique of centralized state power, the work first examines radical Daoist thought from the 4th century BCE to the 9th century CE and compares Daoist philosophers and poets to Western anarchist and utopian thinkers. This is followed by a survey of anarchist themes in dissident thought in the People s Republic of China from 1949 to the present. A concluding chapter discusses how Daoist anarchism can be applied to any anarchist-inspired radical critique today. This work not only challenges the usual ideas of the scope and nature of dissent in China, it also provides a unique comparison of ancient Chinese Daoist anarchism to Western anarchist. Featuring previously untranslated texts, such as the 9th century Buddhist anarchist tract, the Wunengzi, and essays from the PRC press, it will be an essential resource to anyone studying anarchism, Chinese political thought‎
