"After nearly three decades of rapid economic development, China is now a major power whose actions can significantly affect other countries, from America to Zimbabwe. As a result, China Studies has grown exponentially. In particular, there is a growing interest in studies of Chinese politics, not least because of the considerable uncertainties that remain over the country’s future political direction. This new Routledge title is a comp ..."

Yvain, Chretien links by means of t ..."

and controlling rigging best suited to that sail position but, even more important,
the sail itself thus presents a rigid leading-edge: the mast, in the case of most
modern sailboat ..."
