Summary: "With China's political and economic influence now reaching well beyond its borders, its future course bears significance both domestically and abroad. Predictions abound in anticipation of these consequential "next steps." But in Thomas Fingar and Jean C. Oi's Fateful Decisions, speculating about what may come is eschewed in favor of analyzing what currently is. A collective examination of politics and policy alike, this edited volume illustrates the challenges and high expectations - many of which are the result of its own past successes - that China faces and will need to navigate. But, importantly, it also stresses that the country's direction will be determined as much by conditions and circumstances beyond its control as by its effective internal action. Emphasizing the contingent nature of its future, the book anticipates China's course by focusing on present problems and the ways in which decision-makers might solve them"--
