China's Changing--From Economic Reform to Democracy

Abstract

This is a changing world. The most unbelievable change (triumph) was the break up of the U.S.S.R.. These changes signified the end of the Cold War. The costly arms race between East and West is over. At this moment the future of the People's Republic of China (PRC) has become the focus of world attention. Based on theory and facts the PRC's changing process can not be stopped any more. Our concern is how China will change, peaceful change or drastic and sudden change. No one will argue with peaceful change. Gradual change leading Mainland China to democracy will benefit everyone and is most preferred. But this most preferred change will not emerge on its own. It requires us, free world community, to work together to accelerate the PRC's peaceful evolution.
