One reason to hope that matters will not get out of hand is China’s deep integration into the global economy. But, within China, as the American political scientists Andrew Nathan and Andrew Scobell argued recently in Foreign Affairs, there is growing tension between domestic economic priorities and Chinese leaders’ belief that “China’s political stability and territorial integrity are threatened by foreign actors and forces.”
期望局面不会失控的理由之一是中国与全球经济的深度整合。但在中国国内，正如美国政治学家安德鲁·内森和安德鲁·史考贝尔最近在《外交事务》上评论的那样，国内经济重点和中国领导人认为“中国的政治稳定和领土完整正受到国外势力威胁”之间的矛盾正日益加深。
