China: La Edad de la Ambici n

Evan Osnos

After five years as a correspondent in China for The New Yorker, Evan Osnos has written one of the books that best explains the country’s complex reality in a crucial moment of its history. In China: la edad de la ambici n, he analyzes three major themes: the search for prosperity, attempts at democratic openness, and spirituality –all amid the omnipresent Community Party. The book also incorporates accounts from various citizens, some anonymous and some famous, as in the case of Ai Weiwei, on the effects of this breakneck pursuit of wealth on all areas of Chinese society.

Tras pasar cinco a os como corresponsal en China de la revista New Yorker, Evan Osnos ha escrito uno de los libros que mejor explica la compleja realidad del gigante asi tico en un momento crucial de su historia. El libro analiza tres grandes temas -la b squeda de la prosperidad, los intentos de apertura democr tica y la espiritualidad; con la presencia omnipresente del Partido Comunista. El libro tambi n re ne los testimonios de distintos ciudadanos, algunos an nimos y otros tan famosos como Ai Weiwei, el artista que se ha atrevido a denunciar los abusos del macro estado inmerso en esta Edad de la Ambici n. Esta desenfrenada carrera por la riqueza afecta a todos los estratos de la sociedad china y amenaza con romper la estabilidad social que ha sido la clave de su xito.
