Even before he became a teenager, Harvey Dzodin was fascinated listening to his shortwave radio in Detroit, and was especially captivated by far-off China. This book is the culmination of the decades of interactions and experiences that Dr. Harvey Dzodin, former ABC executive, presidential appointee and avid commentator on everything global, has had with China and its people. His raw, personal, and sometimes impassioned insights into China s history, its people, culture and even its current rise on the global stage, give a fresh perspective on perhaps the most consequential country of the twenty-first century. Suitable for both the experienced China hand as well as those with only a cursory knowledge of the Middle Kingdom, Harvey encourages the reader to make their own judgements on China and come to their own conclusion. It is his hope that this book will contribute, in some part, to the sharing of knowledge and the furthering of communication, thus helping to overcome barriers to mutual understanding and informed decision making that plague the world today.
Dr. Harvey Dzodin is a Senior Fellow of the Center for China and Globalization, and was Advisor in Global Communications to the National Image Communication Research Center of Tsinghua University. Dr. Dzodin is a Beijing and Vienna based freelance columnist and commentator for global media including China Daily, China Global TV and Radio, and Türkiye’s TRT World. Dr. Dzodin was a political appointee of the 39th US President Jimmy Carter as his lawyer on a presidential committee. After being nominated by the White House and the U.S. Department of State, he served at the United Nations Office in Vienna. He was a director and vice president of the ABC TV Network in New York for more than 20 years during which time he avidly participated in the activities of the Council on Foreign Relations and the Carnegie Council on Ethics and International Affairs. He has published over 400 columns, focusing on international affairs, Sino-US relations, the Belt and Road Initiative, and arts and culture. He’s a sought after speaker and consultant in China and abroad. The American Biography Institute (ABI) has named Dr. Dzodin one of the “Great Thinkers of the 21st Century.” Along with his wife, Lisa Zhang, Dr. Dzodin recently established the Austrian NGO HCD Earthcare Culture Association.
