"The West has lost the art of sharing power," says Kishore Mahbubani

Academic and former diplomat Kishore Mahbubani is the author of the provocative book “Has the West Lost It?”. The answer, he says, "is no or not yet. But I fear the West is about to lose it." Find out what the Asian century and the rise of China mean for Switzerland-and the world.

I grown up in 80's in a small town in China, called ZhongGuan Village, when China was poor (it is still poor in my opinion because I have high expectation for my country). I did admire American and European life style and richness when I was a kid, and I acknowledge that the US is the most powerful dominant country in the world. I am totally fine and indifferent letting the US or any country be the No. 1. But the point is, I never feel shameful or bothered about "we are poor now or we are no longer No.1". I never thought about this No.1 issue. I know a little about Chinese history, and I know our goal and our historical position in this world. The history of our civilization and culture give me confidence and a peace of mind. I will just do my part of work, be a decent civilized individual, as best as a Chinese can do, then our nation will be what it supposed to be, I don't care who is the No. 1, and everyone in this world deserve a better life, that's for sure.

[@estchu]

Kishore is a gentleman who says things logically but very tenderly and try not to offend. But I will retranslate. Because the West fails to confront the fact that just because you are born white, you do not earn the right of superiority. If the West fails to confront the superiority mentality, they will see the rise of China as a Yellow Peril of 12 Century. The worst mental block comes from the Angelo Saxon nations. If the mental block continues, it will lead to war. Kishore and other like minded scholars such as Martin Jacques are trying their best to avert the catastrophic event by talking to the wall.

I have seen various aspects of the very old chinese cultures and intellectual systems. Would it not be a useful thought that there is a form of Chinese pluralism all of which happens "under the heaven" and is utterly complex, and that further thoughtful increase of such pluralism would create a buffer zone, where the adverse western minds can cool down and walk millions of miles, exhausting their crave of superiority? The Western mind is curious and nosy. If it becomes interested enough, it will walk a million exciting paths. To create this effect, soft power is required. But the powers of supremacy cannot be other than centrist. They will have to enforce their centrism on their own minds, that became aware of an exciting, diverse and multipolar world. This will become a very interesting contradiction.

[@estchu]

@@neovxr Thoughts on utopia is interesting. However the world is not flat from the Western point of view. Freedom Democracy and Equality are all sugar coatings to the human weakness. The jaundice view that the West sees is racial stratified world. Racial purification is the underlying philosophy for the Nazis and still in the DNA of the West. G7 AUKUS and the Five Eye Nations are all about the color of White.

[@neovxr]

@@estchu You are right, it exists, but a remarkable number of "white" people do not want it, or never wanted that, and they do not believe that they are "owned" by their race or nation and by their elites as if they were cattle. Many leaders and journalists are riding on the vehicle of race (today more in the culturalist way), but at the same time hide behind idealist preachings. One of the contradictions the West is crashing into, exists right within the "judeo-christian" paradigm, that had been used also as a colonial tool box, including domestic colonization of their own. But with what is happening in Ukraine, I am expecting a major falling-out. Remember history, it was among allegedly white ethnicities. i am supporting a multipolar world. I want to reveal that the "West-Supremacy" full with hypocritic preachings of equality and rule based order, is on its way to fall back into White Supremacy. This insight is important and has aspects that are not trivial. It helps to deconstruct the official rationale. It is not even understood by most Westerners.

Confucianism is also a state philosophy propagated by monarchs to control the populace. During the warring state periods, authoritarianism was systemic and largely down to the highly authoritarian past of the Zhou and Shang dynasties. One beget another as leaders copied each other's meticulous methods of complete control. Chinese warlords and kings have always been power hungry and never wanted to share power. This is fact from history. The only forward thinking Chinese is Sun Yat Sen. That's it. The rest of you are just communist Marxist loving bastards.

what's with all the debt trap bs. u think we owe africans something so we need to make some kind of compensation to them? no one forced them to sign the contracts btw. if anyone, it's the west, who hold their investments as bargaining chips in exchange of political and economic gains. we told u what we were doing and what we planned to do along time ago and we keep telling u what our intention is. we r there to make money , which helps africans build their infrastructure and develop their economy, but our main goal is to profit. money or resources. u can work double shifts and pay back the debt so that your son won't have to worry about power shortages, or u can take half of the day off to fuck around and give us your mines. it's really your pick. u think u can try your luck somewhere else, be our guest.

China is fed up because their IP theft for 3 decades will be ending significantly under Trump. They have been copying and copying and getting American greedy oligarchs to use their resources and slave wage peasants to build at Low cost. Now America finally no longer has globalist boot licker Politicians who will do the will of these so called global institutions, these American self serving Politicians are no longer selling out America for China's gain. What is shocking to me that what America is doing is considered wrong by all these think tanks. When merely they are saying, hold on, let me stop cutting my own nose to spite my face. It is not up to global bodies to decide what other citizens want from their election of their leaders. Do these think tanks have no respect? Why are they lecturing peoples around the world and tell them what to do? They live in Ivory towers and work for their lobbyists and sponsors

US Military has the biggest budget in the world, 3 times more than that of China’s. USA is the biggest war mongor. USA started close to 30 wars against small and weak countries ever since WW2. USA bought millions and millions of refugees and death to these countries. Recently USA also illegally kidnapped a young lady from Huawei as a hostage in order to obtain money and 5G technology.

[@soft-hawk]

Yeah, USA made a shameful example in the world history.

[@ConstantineJoseph]

Kidnapped? 5G is known to be able to conduct espionage on American data systems. There are valid reasons for the charge. Also America literally supported Mao to win the battle against Generalissimo Chiang and helped finally kick the Japanese out of the entire Asian continent and pacific. Without the intervention Japan would have a Long term foothold on China to this very day. You are all looking at America with rose tinted lenses. Yes there have been bad presidents and many of them are but Trump on the other hand wants to end all the wars and is the first populist choice since Eisenhower and the first good President since JFK. Americans generally have good will to her trade partners and are always willing to grow and prosper together. It is the corrupt officials in Washington that will work for the mega corporations interest to foment war and help profit the military industrial complex

psychology is an inner process of the individual, and it can become collective via known social and instinctive mechanisms. we have to make a strong distinction from public morals and ideology, which is the creation of an environment by the few. the worry should be about the american moralist system that wants to define china as evil, for the purpose to not allow its growth. then, ideology is being used to create some logic backup for this strategic will and definition. then further, the connection between religion and the state apparatus and its elites wants to inject a religious interpretation that also confirms that china ostensibly has to be seen as an evil danger, threatening the judeo-christian value system.
