ABSTRACT

100 years ago, China was such a plagued country that the West thought it the world’s problem. A century later, China seems to be the Middle Kingdom when it once was one of the most powerful in the world. China’s great transformation origins from its new political and economic thinking, which will also rejuvenate its culture. Politically, China turned to sinicization, after its failed efforts of westernization. In economy, China has still a long road to run for catching up with the West’s modernization, but China has aimed to rejuvenate itself as a rich and powerful state but rather copied the western capitalism like most developing states, or later the eastern European and Soviet communist states. In the end, China turned away from the western democracy while hungering for science, which implied the clash of civilization for some westerners but the harmony for the Chinese. Chinese has been thinking about China and the world’s future in the western way, but in the coming days, China may play its roles as one eastern center of the world’s diversifying civilizations.
