Sinopse
Características

Under President Xi Jinpings Chinese Dream (???) rhetoric, China has continued its meteoric rise as the worlds second largest economic power. But for many, the Chinese Dream remains a myth rather than a tangible reality. The Chinese Dream belongs to those who make their way to Chinas megacities. What does the future hold for those stuck in smaller cities like Hefei? Thats the question at the heart of Marching toward Prosperity: The Chinese Dream through the Eyes of Public Servants. Author Harry Ziyu He puts Chinas complicated economic reality into historical and cultural context and distills it down to personal stories that are relatable to readers in China and the West alike.A boyhood visit to an ice cream shop becomes a lesson on cosmopolitan modernityA family secret about foot binding shrinks the distance to Chinas ancient past to illustrate the rapid social progress of the 20th Century. A ride on an empty metro train car becomes a metaphor for Chinas success storyMarching toward Prosperity foregoes the stories youve heard-from celebrities at the apex to the destitute at the margins-and marches straight down the middle, where hopes, fears, and dreams look strikingly familiar.
