Echoing @willknight recommendation to buy @YashengHuang tremendous new book investigating how the Chinese state values & promotes certain norms & customs that provide advantages but these simultaneously stall development & prosperity, which I reviewed for @BooksinFive below! 1/5
Polish version, already published is also very popular. Congratulations.

There is very little similarity between his argument and my book. In fact TED invited me to write a rebuttal. You can read it on TED.

Thank you for the review. I really like the extension of the discussion at the end on meritocracy.

推荐黄亚生教授@YashengHuang 他的理解非常深刻,特别是对考试这种制度的解读让我感觉就是这样!
I do see some resemblance.
I wrote more about why Europe did not get reunified rather than why Roman Empire collapsed. I am not foolish enough to put myself in competition with Gibbon.

This week on Sinica, political scientist Iza Ding of Northwestern University joins to share her ideas on how American academia has framed and problematized authoritarianism, especially re: China. Don't miss this one! art19.com/shows/sinica/e…
@rojasrjuand @ktdrozdowski @amconmag @YashengHuang It is a ridiculous TED talk in which he has the effrontery to extol diversity on behalf of a government that ruthlessly suppresses it and constantly invokes the need to “unify thinking” (统一思想) and unquestioningly follow the Party.
NEWS - North America’s Building Trades Unions voted today to endorse Biden — much earlier than usual, and w/plans to spend eight figures on mobilizing its 250,000 members specifically in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. They credit infrastructure. cnn.com/2024/04/23/pol…
@YashengHuang On a slightly related note, have you read David Wilson's Darwin's Cathedral? He's an evolutionary biologist who came up with group selection theory. In the book, he looks at how certain religious groups (including early Christians) out-competed others.
And to all the American voters out there who sent messages to your representatives about why this aid package serves American national security interests, thank you! Keep fighting. We’re going to save this country from not repeating the mistakes of the isolationists in the 1930s.
To all of our voters demoralized by what the House did today: keep fighting. It won’t be easy, but we’re going to save this country.
Banned in China, published by Project Syndicate— my paper on Chinese rebalancing, written by invitation for the China Development Forum. Makes the analytical/ empirical case for structural change aimed at boosting TFP and consumer-led growth. Why ban it? project-syndicate.org/onpoint/china-…
@lawfare @YashengHuang If China ever freed it's people's minds and creativity, it would be a major force.
@lawfare @YashengHuang The US thrives because of diversity, sorry Republicans but it's true. All cultures of the world bring their POV and art and music and food and experience and it all mixes, and there is synergy and hybrid vigor. It's why the world loves our entertainment and style, it's everyones.
I write this with profound sadness. Since I became a dean, my wife and I have invited the first-year students to our home for dinner. We were asked this year by the presidents of the third year class to have the graduating students over for dinner because they began in Fall 2021…
A group of Berkeley law students accepted an invitation to dine at the private home of dean Erwin Chemerinsky and his wife, a law professor, then disrupted the event and refused to leave. Bizarrely, this student claims her conduct is protected by the 1st Amendment. Activists are…

Been 6 months since Republicans/MAGA blocked Ukraine aid just to embarrass Biden. It’s inexcusable for not getting it done especially those who never shut up about their “good Christian values” nonstop allow Putin to slaughter Ukrainians defending their land.
@looksbbbb @thocpodcast I’m not being really serious here. I do agree with you that greatness is not measured by how much territory you conquer. @YashengHuang’s “The Rise and Fall of the EAST” suggests that unifying a cultural space has significant downsides as well as upsides.
