Unreferenced date December 2009 Chine USA, la guerre programm e China USA , the upcoming war is a book authored by Jean Fran ois Susbielle , published in 2006. It explores the politics and economics of both China and the USA, claiming that their relative self interest are becoming more conflicting, to the point that it would bring them to war. Susbielle s main theory is that China, after a century of humiliation from the Opium War until the end of World War II , has focused its energies and resources to gain the only status it sees for itself, which is to be the dominant power of the world. For the time being, China adapts a pragmatic low profile in international politics, since it does not yet have quite the power to fully protect its interests. China uses its formidable economic boom to gain access to the technology required to build a significant military force. For its part, the USA is divided in two camps the Wal Mart Wall Street camp and The Pentagon Neocons camp. For the Wal Mart Wall Street camp, China is a strategic ally that supplies the USA with enormous quantities of cheap consumer goods, which is beneficial to the American economy as it tends to help controlling the inflation while allowing American consumers to buy even more goods and services. For the Pentagon Neocons camp, China is a strategic challenge that must be contained. In the mean time, Susbielle contends that the main strategic objective of the USA in the world is to have power over all major oil fields, so as to control China s access to a form of energy that it desperately requires in order to maintain its economic growth. This, in his view, explains why the USA invaded Iraq in 2003. Also, the War on terror led by the USA would simply be a pretext to encircle China with American military bases in Afghanistan , Kazakhstan , Tajikistan , Philippines , Indonesia , etc. .

Orphan date April 2008 Portal Christianity in China China and the Christian Impact was published in 1985 as the English translation of Jacques Gernet s Chine et christianisme of 1982. It received considerable attention from academic circles dealing with China and the Jesuit China missions Jesuit mission , mainly because of its approach to the subject from an almost exclusively Chinese point of view. In this Gernet differs much from previous studies on the China mission, the most famous up to that point perhaps being the Jesuit George Dunne s Generation of Giants 1962 , which analyzes the Jesuit China missions Jesuit China mission from a decidedly Eurocentrism eurocentric perspective. In spite of the wide range of source material consulted by its author, Gernet s book has been criticized on account of its apparent anachronisms, and lack of explanatory background information when dealing with historically related events.
