Sobre este artículo
London : Macmillan, 1998. First Edition. Hardback. Fine cloth copy in a near-fine, very slightly edge-dulled dust wrapper, now mylar-sleeved. Remains particularly well-preserved overall; tight, bright, clean and strong.; 8vo 8"" - 9"" tall; 340 pages; 340p ; 24cm. Patten examines how the former British colony has been governed and the reasons for its enormous economic success. He also discusses the controversial relationship between political freedom, social order and economic prosperity in Asia. By the former Chairman of the Conservative Party and the last Governor of Hong Kong, this work offers an analysis of the Asian phenomenon and the future of economic and political liberty in China and East Asia in the 21st century. This book focuses on Chris Patten's key disputes with China over questions of democratic elections, civil liberties and Hong Kong's independence, and also examines the larger picture of the Asian value system and Communist China. It examines the implications of China's economic reforms, and sets out the key political agendas for the future for both East and West.
