Reflections on China's Need for a ‘Chinese World Order’
The Modernization of Inner Asia
Inner Asia - in premodern times the little-known land of nomads and semi-nomads - has moved to the world's front page in the 20th century as the complex struggles for the future of Afghanistan, Soviet Central Asia, Tibet and other territories make clear.

Will China Democratize?The End of Communism Arthur Waldron (bio) I would dearly like to affirm that China will be a fully democratic state in ten years’ time, but in all honesty I see that possibility as very small. What I do believe is that the next ten years will see extensive change and perhaps turbulence in China without leading, by the period’s end, to any conclusive resolution of fundamental issues of governance. I expect a mixed government…

Theories of Nationalism and Historical Explanation
Self-Proclaimed nationalist movements have been active since the 19th century; the history of nations, most would agree, can be traced back a good deal further. The importance of nationalism as a force in shaping the modern world seems undeniable, and as an idea, it continues to exhibit great intellectual potency

Warlordism Versus Federalism: The Revival of a Debate?
For anyone who studies modern Chinese political thought, the revival of interest in federalism is one of the most striking features of the current scene. It has been particularly visible abroad in the wake of the Tiananmen massacre, and its most conspicuous spokesman has been the former director of the Institute of Political Science of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Yan Jiaqi. In remarks delivered to the First Congress of Chinese Student…
