How can China convert its growing economic power into political and cultural influence around the globe? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWilliam A. Callahan's China Dreams gives voice to China's many different futures by exploring the grand aspirations and deep anxieties of a broad group of public intellectuals. Stepping outside the narrow politics of officials vs. dissidents, Callahan examines what a third group--citizen\u003cbr\u003eintellectuals--think about China's future. China Dreams eavesdrops on fascinating conversations between officials, scholars, soldiers, bloggers, novelists, film-makers and artists to see how they describe China's different political, strategic, economic, social and cultural futures. Callahan also\u003cbr\u003eexamines how the PRC's new generation of twenty- and thirty-somethings is creatively questioning The China Model of economic development. The personal stories of these citizen intellectuals illustrate China's zeitgeist and a complicated mix of hopes and fears about The Chinese Century, providing\u003cbr\u003ea clearer sense of how the PRC's dramatic economic and cultural transitions will affect the rest of the world. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eChina Dreams explores the transnational connections between American and Chinese people, providing a new approach to Sino-American relations. While many assume that 21st century global politics will be a battle of Confucian China vs. the democratic west, Callahan weaves Chinese and American ideals\u003cbr\u003etogether to describe a new Chimerican dream.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William A.
