"China's rise has been a source of anxiety and controversy among Western thinkers, and it has had an equally galvanizing influence on Chinese public intellectuals. Voices from China's Century brings together voices from China's three main intellectual communities: Liberals, New Left, and New Confucians. China's strong position in the world, particularly since 2008, has caused ruptures within these groups. The liberals, who, despite internal differences within the group, have represented the "default mode" for the majority of Chinese intellectuals since the 1980s, are now clearly on the defensive, as constitutional democracy and the rule of law have not insulated the West from economic downturns and populism. The same changes have also affected the New Left, who have largely abandoned their posture of support for the laboring masses and joined the New Authoritarians, both supporting the Party-State. The New Confucians have re-branded themselves as "Mainland New Confucians," emphasizing their rupture with New Confucians elsewhere in the Chinese diaspora, and have concentrated on fashioning new discursive themes that claim to provide specifically Confucian content to Xi Jinping's Chinese Dream. In the case of each group, the themes sounded have grown organically out of familiar arguments from the 1990s and 2000s, but they are also distinct in their response to China's--and the world's--new normal. This collection of translations seeks to provide the historical context and analysis to give English readers a concrete sense of what these different Chinese intellectual propositions are responding to"--
