China has a long history of closing itself away against foreigners and their disruptive ideas, yes. It also has a long history of stagnation caused by the same. At the end of the day, "wanting to be a superpower on par with the US or greater" and "isolating yourself from barbarians" are two incompatible goals. Superpowers need to build coalitions and attract allies; this cannot be done without some mixing of the involved nations, even if it just concerned students, businesspeople, investors, soldiers and diplomats. |
