The US formula for China – Larry Wortzel and Devin T Stewart

From Asia Times:

…Why does the US hope to promote at least the constituent elements of civil society, including freedom of speech, freedom of association, transparency and accountability?

The spread of civil society in East Asia over the past several years has coincided with stability in the security and economic realms. In line with this trend, greater transparency would help reduce the fear of China posing a near-term military threat, ensure that China contributes to the health of the global economy and clarify its long-term ambitions.
