China: Triumph and Turmoil DVD
Released for the first time on DVD, China: Triumph and Turmoil follows Niall Ferguson’s journey as he uncovers the pressing economical and political dilemma that China poses on the West.
Will this turn out to be the Chinese century? Should the West be scared? Or will the Red Dragon crash and burn?
Our future and China’s are intertwined in a way that would have been unimaginable ten years ago.
Its rapid development means that within as little as five years, China could become the biggest superpower in the world and Niall embarks upon a quest to discover the impact this will have on us.
In his search for answers, Niall tracks down people who can explain what China really stands for, speaking to a range of people, from survivors of the madness of Chairman Mao and newly minted billionaires in China’s megacities, to aggressive young nationalists and the brave defenders of China’s rural poor.
In this series, Niall goes on to investigate the cult of Mao in further depth and finally addresses the question that the western world is increasingly asking: Should we be afraid of a China that succeeds and takes over the world? Or a China that fails and takes down the West with it?
Explore this crucial and current debate with Niall Ferguson in China: Triumph and Turmoil which is out to own on DVD from 2nd April 2012.
