Chinese President Xi Jinping is making the most audacious geopolitical bet of the 21st century.
"The orders have been sudden, dramatic and often baffling,". Jude Blanchette of the Center for Strategic and International Studies says, "This is not a sector-by-sector rectification; this is an entire economic, industry and structural rectification."to share the virtues and successes of the Chinese authoritarian model with the rest of the world.
"Beijing seeks less to impose a Marxist-Leninist ideology on foreign societies than to legitimate and promote its own authoritarian system," , the recently appointed director of the Atlantic Council's new China Global Hub, wrote in "Foreign Affairs." "The CCP doesn't seek ideological conformity but rather power, security, and global influence for China and for itself."remake the world in its image, but rather "to make the world friendlier to its interests — and more welcoming to the rise of authoritarianism in general.
Those measures include "spreading propaganda, expanding information operations, consolidating economic influence, and meddling in foreign political systems" with the ultimate goal of "hollowing out democratic institutions and norms within and between countries," Edel and Shullman write.The first is that Xi, by overreaching in his controls at home, will undo just the sorts of economic and societal liberalization China needs to succeed.
In the end, however, Xi's concerted moves require an equally concerted response from the world's democracies. The French-U.S. crisis following the Australian defense deal this week provides just one example of how difficult that will be to achieve and sustain.
