But according to journalist and author Michael Schuman, that\u2019s not the only way to see China\u2019s economic and political resurgence. \n\nOn this episode, Watson\u2019s Director Ed Steinfeld talks with Michael about his book 'Superpower Interrupted: The Chinese History of the World.' The book will be, to many, a fresh perspective on Chinese history. But it's more than a history lesson; it\u2019s also a powerful example of how national narratives develop, and how they are used for political ends. \n\nYou can learn more about and purchase 'Superpower Interrupted: A Chinese History of the World,' here: [https://www.publicaffairsbooks.com/titles/michael-schuman/superpower-interrupted/9781541788329/]\n\nYou can read a transcript of this episode here: [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1edhdy2TCLVfQk5jBww1lu27O33flFZQb/view?usp=sharing]","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/d1c4e4c3-a0a0-4ec9-8c96-27a72165ad1d/artworks-uyc9mgaxbugmp4bu-p7ah9q-t3000x3000.jpg"}
