national rejuvenation of China: Are we psychologically and ethically prepared to meet the rise of commercial prosperity? Will we sink into self-adulation? Have we learned adequately how to play the role of a great power? World-class prestige and world-class risk will lurk, like a pair of twins, along China’spath of economic advancement. As we move toward an unfathomable tomorrow, we must maintain a necessary sense of alertness, not because we are afraid, but because a mature nation is expected to do so.
