Global History with Chinese Characteristics
Manuel Perez-Garcia
This book's insight into Chinese and international history offers timely and challenging perspectives on initiatives like "Chinese characteristics", "The New Silk Road" and "One Belt, One Road" in a broad historical context. Global History with Chinese Characteristics analyses the feeble state capacity of Qing China questioning the so-called "High Qing" (shèng qīng 盛清) era's economic prosperity as the political system was set into a "power paradox" or "supremacy dilemma." This is a new thesis introduced by the author demonstrating that interventionist states entail weak governance. Macao and Marseille as a new case study aim to compare Mediterranean and South China markets to provide new insights into both modern eras' rising trade networks, non-official institutions, and interventionist impulses of autocratic states such as China's Qing and Spain's Bourbon empires.
