Buoyed by its creditor's hold on the United States and its ability to withstand the harsh winds of recession blowing from across the Pacific, China has graduated in its own mind from an emerging economy to a world power.

Is China's new arrogance well‐founded, or is it going to be the next bubble to burst? As it moves beyond "the primary stage of socialism" is it ready to open up politically?In this section, some top China scholars, one of China's most well‐known dissidents and a former US spy chief discuss these issues.

La concesión del Premio Nobel de la Paz 2010 al disidente Liu Xiaobo plantea candentes cuestiones sobre la realidad política china y la relación de Pekín con el exterior. El presente análisis se propone, en primer lugar, contextualizar la figura de Liu Xiaobo, ganador del Premio Nobel de la Paz 2010. En segundo término, intenta explicar el sentido de la brecha ideológica del desencuentro con Occidente del que ha hablado Pekín como consecuencia del premio. Finalmente, reflexiona sobre el impacto que puede tener el premio en la política interna de China.
