China: Contemporary Political, Economic, and International AffairsChina’s dramatic transformation over the past fifteen years has drawn its share of attention and fear from the global community and world leaders.

And China’s dynamism is by no means limited to its economy: enrollments in secondary and higher education are rapidly expanding, and new means of communication are vastly increasing information available to the Chinese public.
