YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

In recent years China has markedly increased its naval powers, asserted its claims to areas including the South China Sea, and stepped up aggressive diplomatic pressure on smaller regional powers. These actions, French argues, are part of the nation’s goal of regaining the glory of its dynastic past. A veteran journalist, two-time winner of the Overseas Press Club Award, former China bureau chief for The New York Times, and author of China’s Second Continent, French shows how we can prepare for the future of a regionally dominant China by interpreting its present actions in light of its past.
