Martin Jacques on the Rise of China and the End of the West

Some readers may be interested in a recording of a conversation I had with author Martin Jacques recently while he was in Shanghai. Jacques is the author of the recently published book When China Rules the World, about how China has become part of the world’s ‘global mind’. We also discussed the implications of growing Chinese investment and business in Africa, the Middle East and internationally, the future of Sino-US relations and what a rising and more powerful China means to all of us in our everyday lives.
