Book Description: By the former Chairman of the Conservative Party and the last Governor of Hong Kong, this work offers an analysis of the Asian phenomenon and the future of economic and political liberty in China and East Asia in the 21st century. This book focuses on Chris Patten's key disputes with China over questions of democratic elections, civil liberties and Hong Kong's independence, and also examines the larger picture of the Asian value system and Communist China. It examines the implications of China's economic reforms, and sets out the key political agendas for the future for both East and West.
