The China Question series delves into the history and culture of our most enigmatic neighbour as experts ponder how we can best manage our vexed relationship with Beijing.

With sessions on history, Hong Kong and Australia’s missteps in the region, as well as analysis from Australian foreign correspondents documenting China’s development across decades, this series is a great overview of the critical issues surrounding the rise of the next great Superpower.
