This episode of 22 George Street begins with reflections on the missed opportunities for peace in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, highlighting the role of compromise in political progress. Drawing parallels to China, the discussion delves into the cultural and historical factors that inhibit compromise within its political system. From the Empress Dowager Cixi’s suppression of reform to the glorification of authoritarian figures like Qin Shi Huang, China’s history underscores a resistance to power-sharing and reform, driven by fears of retribution and cultural reverence for absolute authority. The podcast examines why the success of past reforms, like the 1980s economic opening, cannot be replicated in today’s global and domestic climate. It argues that China’s resilience is built not on systemic flexibility, but on the population’s tolerance for hardship, which prolongs stagnation and blocks systemic change. Finally, it explores the risks of collapse inherent in rigid systems, emphasizing the importance of compromise for societal renewal. Without it, China appears locked in cycles of control and unrest, with its future shaped more by inertia than innovation.
