        "Never invest beyond theShanhai Pass", as the saying goes.The particular cultural environment and openness make the brain drain in Northeast China extremely serious. However, Miao Qing, a seemingly delicate doctoral student from a famous school, resolutely went northward because she had a personal plan thatwas related to both her father and herself, namely, to design a world-leading large aircraft. Her father once said that just as a poet without imagination must be a lousy poet, a country without advanced aircraft could never escape the fate of a backward country. For this reason, Miao Qing started her career atKunpeng Group, later went to Feiying Company to produce a leading small low-altitude aerial drone, and then sheplayed the leading role in the national G-31 project that designed a stealth supersonic aircraft and made a successful trial flight.

        Britain in China

        by Robert Bickers

        This is a study of Britain's presence in China both at its peak, and during its inter-war dissolution in the face of assertive Chinese nationalism and declining British diplomatic support. Using archival materials from China and records in Britain and the United States, the author paints a portrait of the traders, missionaries, businessmen, diplomats and settlers who constituted "Britain-in-China", challenging our understanding of British imperialism there. Bickers argues that the British presence in China was dominated by urban settlers whose primary allegiance lay not with any grand imperial design, but with their own communities and precarious livelihoods. This brought them into conflict not only with the Chinese population, but with the British imperial government. The book also analyzes the formation and maintenance of settler identities, and then investigates how the British state and its allies brought an end to the reign of freelance, settler imperialism on the China coast. At the same time, other British sectors, missionary and business, renegotiated their own relationship with their Chinese markets and the Chinese state and distanced themselves from the settler British.

        China und Russland

        Kurze Geschichte einer langen Beziehung | Die grundlegende Einführung in die chinesisch-russischen Beziehungen

        by Sören Urbansky, Martin Wagner

        Urbansky und Wagner – zwei ausgewiesenen Kennern der beiden Länder – erzählen die wechselvolle Geschichte vielschichtiger Verbindungen, denen sich China und Russland niemals entziehen konnten. Als imperiale Großreiche, sozialistische Supermächte und autoritäre Gewaltregime glichen und verglichen sie sich, sie konkurrierten und kooperierten. China und Russland können sich nicht aus dem Weg gehen und marschieren doch nicht im Gleichschritt. Über das Verhältnis zwischen China und Russland wird viel spekuliert. Einerseits befürchten Beobachter:innen ein Bündnis der autoritären Regime. Andererseits widersprechen sich die geopolitischen Interessen Pekings und Moskaus oftmals. Auf der einen Seite nennen sich Xi Jinping und Wladimir Putin »gute Freunde«. Auf der anderen Seite ist unklar, ob die Länder sich auf Augenhöhe begegnen und wie sich die Machtbalance verschoben hat. Um die chinesisch-russischen Beziehungen im 21. Jahrhundert angemessen einzuordnen, muss man ihre lange Vergangenheit verstehen. Die Historiker Sören Urbansky und Martin Wagner führen in die vierhundertjährige Geschichte der beiden Nachbarn ein: von den ersten offiziellen Kontakten 1618 über das Zerwürfnis der beiden kommunistischen Regime unter Chruschtschow und Mao bis hin zu Chinas Reaktion auf Russlands Krieg in der Ukraine 2022.
