The International Development of China by Yat-sen Sun
QR code
"The International Development of China" by Sun Yat-sen is a historical account written in the early 20th century, specifically around the early 1920s. The book discusses the potential for China to develop its vast resources and infrastructure in the aftermath of World War I. Central to the book is the vision of utilizing international cooperation to create an economically prosperous China while avoiding the pitfalls of militarism and capitalistic exploitation. At the
start of the work, the author outlines his motivation for exploring China's development, particularly the urgent need for international assistance to stem potential conflicts arising from economic inequalities. He argues for a socialist approach to development that would benefit both foreign nations and the Chinese people, insisting on the importance of planning and collaboration between governments and the people of China. The opening portion presents a broad range of ambitious programs aimed at modernizing China's infrastructure—such as developing transportation systems, ports, and urban centers—while addressing the significant opportunity for the Chinese economy to emerge as a key player in the global marketplace.
