Minqi Li : China's elites are primarily focused on neoliberal globalization. Part 7

Minqi Li, a chinese political economist, believes that "as far as China's ruling elites are concerned and concerning China's capitalists, I would say, nationalism is not so much their own ideology. And their own ideology, if there is anything at all, is primarily neo-liberal globalization, and they're very much identified with hegemony.

Minqi Li is an Assistant Professor at the University of Utah specializing in Political Economy, World Systems and the Chinese Economy. He was a political prisoner in China from 1990 to 1992. He is the author of "After Neoliberalism: Empire, Social Democracy, or Socialism?

    • They are looking at Siberia for expansion if they are looking anywhere. That's why Russia has made sure to secure good relations and appease China as much as it is reasonable.

    • You have got to be kidding. Hegemony is the perfect word for China. That is exactly where they are headed.

      The world will all turn their eyes to China one day. They will be calling the shots. The US will become a Chinese Lackey.

    • Although I doubt the comment about Chinese goals being hegemony, obviously with a population like that they will be surely trying to expand their sphere of influence in at least that they will have some place for some of those people to go and resources or at least square meterage to use. LOL! I've heard they're expanding influence in Africa. Maybe at least someone will see fit to irrigating all that land, transforming that continent and saving humanity from the horror of idly and complacently allowing millions to die annually of malnutrition and a lack of clean water.
