Zusammenfassung: | "A vibrant, colorful, and revelatory inner history of China during a moment of profound transformation From abroad, we often see China as a caricature: a nation of pragmatic plutocrats and ruthlessly dedicated students destined to rule the global economy--or an addled Goliath, riddled with corruption and on the edge of stagnation. What we don't see is how both powerful and ordinary people are remaking their lives as their country dramatically changes. As the Beijing correspondent for The New Yorker, Evan Osnos was on the ground in China for years, witness to profound political, economic, and cultural upheaval. In Age of Ambition, he describes the greatest collision taking place in that country: the clash between the rise of the individual and the Communist Party's struggle to retain control. He asks probing questions: Why does a government with more success lifting people from poverty than any civilization in history choose to put strict restraints on freedom of expression? Why do millions of young Chinese professionals--fluent in English and devoted to Western pop culture--consider themselves "angry youth," dedicated to resisting the West's influence? How are Chinese from all strata finding meaning after two decades of the relentless pursuit of wealth? Writing with great narrative verve and a keen sense of irony, Osnos follows the moving stories of everyday people and reveals life in the new China to be a battleground between aspiration and authoritarianism, in which only one can prevail"-- "A vibrant, colorful, and revelatory inner history of China during a moment of profound transformation"-- |

What we don't see is how both powerful and ordinary people are remaking their lives as their country dramatically changes. As the Beijing correspondent for The New Yorker, Evan Osnos was on the ground in China for years, witness to profound political, economic, and cultural upheaval. In Age of Ambition, he describes the greatest collision taking place in that country: the clash between the rise of the individual and the Communist Party's struggle to retain control. He asks probing questions: Why does a government with more success lifting people from poverty than any civilization in history choose to put strict restraints on freedom of expression? Why do millions of young Chinese professionals--fluent in English and devoted to Western pop culture--consider themselves "angry youth," dedicated to resisting the West's influence? How are Chinese from all strata finding meaning after two decades of the relentless pursuit of wealth? Writing with great narrative verve and a keen sense of irony, Osnos follows the moving stories of everyday people and reveals life in the new China to be a battleground between aspiration and authoritarianism, in which only one can prevail"-- "A vibrant, colorful, and revelatory inner history of China during a moment of profound transformation"-- Geschichte 2005-2013 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte gnd rswk-swf Geschichte Politik Wirtschaftsentwicklung Soziales System (DE-588)4055764-9 gnd rswk-swf Modernisierung (DE-588)4120755-5 gnd rswk-swf Gesellschaft (DE-588)4020588-5 gnd rswk-swf Politischer Wandel (DE-588)4175047-0 gnd rswk-swf Wirtschaftsentwicklung (DE-588)4066438-7 gnd rswk-swf Sozialer Wandel (DE-588)4077587-2 gnd rswk-swf Politisches System (DE-588)4046584-6 gnd rswk-swf Asien China (DE-588)4009937-4 gnd rswk-swf Peking (DE-588)4075971-4 gnd rswk-swf Social change / China Economic development / China Individualism / China Authoritarianism / China History / Asia / China DE prüfen / Volksrepublik China / Gesellschaft / Sozialer Wandel / Lebensweise/Lebensstil People's Republic of China / Society / Social change / Life style/way of life Jugendliche/Junge Menschen / Jugendkultur / Westliche Kultur / Communist Party of China / Chinesische Kommunistische Partei / KP China / Politisches System / Wirtschaftliche Entwicklung / Bestimmungsfaktoren der Innenpolitik / Meinungsfreiheit/Informationsfreiheit / Alltag Young people / Youth culture / Western culture / Chinese Communist Party (People's Republic of China) / Political systems / Economic development / Determinants of domestic policy / Freedom of expression and information / Every day life China / Civilization / 2002- China / Social conditions / 2000- China / Politics and government / 2002- 1\p (DE-588)4133254-4 Erlebnisbericht gnd-content 2\p (DE-588)4006804-3 Biografie gnd-content China (DE-588)4009937-4 g Peking (DE-588)4075971-4 g Modernisierung (DE-588)4120755-5 s Gesellschaft (DE-588)4020588-5 s Soziales System (DE-588)4055764-9 s Sozialer Wandel (DE-588)4077587-2 s Politisches System (DE-588)4046584-6 s Geschichte z 3\p DE-604 Politischer Wandel (DE-588)4175047-0 s Wirtschaftsentwicklung (DE-588)4066438-7 s Geschichte 2005-2013 z 4\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe 9780374712044 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
