Edward Friedman who holds the Hawkins Chair of Political Science, at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, is an expert on Chinese politics. He has written several books on the subject including?Revolution, Resistance and Reform in Village Chin? and?What If China Does?t Democratize? Friedman answers questions about one of the most dynamic and contested regions of the world. How will the rise of China change the world? How do the Chinese people imagine the answer? How do international analysts see it? How do neighboring governments see the impact of Chin?s rise on the world stage? In projecting possible futures, Professor Friedman discusses how most view the global impact of an economically dynamic, globally involved, authoritarian China as a world power.
