The School of International and Public Affairs presents “Will China Rise Peacefully?” with University of Chicago professor John Mearsheimer. The lecture is part of the prestigious Ruth K. and Shepard Broad Distinguished Lecture Series.
This afternoon I went to the lecture, it was great, I enjoyed it. Though sometimes, I can feel the arrogence and ignorence of Ameircan...
About his lectuer:
Part 1,5 assumptions: a, there is only one super States. b, some countries have power to influence the stability of the world. c, No country has the idea about intention of other country (temperory intention is not =future intention). d, for every country the highest goal is survive. e,Every country tries to be the rational thinker.
Part 2, a, fear of other powerful country's rise. b, when 2 countries have conflict, no 911 could help, so help yourself. c, how to help oneself, by threat others
Part 3, breif America history. This is related with why America is and still want to be super power country. From 1783-1853 is the independent period for the country, they work hard to be independent, kick French, Spanish, English out of the States. From 1853-1900, expore Europe. In 1900-2000, poweful countries: imperial German, Nazi German, Japan, Sovereign Union. America tried its best to impede the rise of these countries. 顺我者昌,逆我者亡!!!
I feel China can hardly escape this fate, horrible. China has many problems,like bord with Japan,Korea, India, Vietnam, Russia. the territory problem: Taiwan, Tibet. economic problem: U.S's pressure, population problem: after 2050 China would turn to a OLD society... Of course, many of them are artificial, because it's developing too fast, there are many countries are nervous, like America and Japan. So they would make many problems to hinder China's development. Reasonable !!!
I'm proud for being a Chinese, but I'm worried about the future of the country. The only thing I could do maybe is learn as much as possible in States and contribute to China. But I don't have any idea about the specific things I should do to make things different. Only with my passion, but where is the path?!
