  • KunstlerCast 387 — Godfree Roberts on China Rising

    27/10/2023 Duração: 53min

        Godfree Roberts is the author of Why China Leads The World: Talent at the Top, Data in the Middle, Democracy at the Bottom.     Godfree Roberts contacted me and suggested I interview him about his book. I thought, ‘okay, why not.’      Well, I’ve never offered up an evaluation of a guest at the outset of the podcast, but I must tell you, I came to the conclusion as the conversation went on, that Mr. Roberts might be a troll, since he sounded increasingly like a paid publicist for the CCP.  I may be wrong about that. But, for instance, his insistence that Mao’s cultural revolution of the 1960s was a mere education campaign and didn’t hurt anybody seemed like utter nonsense to me. You decide for yourselves.
