Irrespective of the concrete meaning of socialism and the function of Marxism in contemporary China the increasing global significance of the dynamic development in China is indisputable.
Recently the biggest official Austrian delegation ever abroad visited China. In July 50 Chinese professors for Marxism will visit Austria, also the biggest respective group ever in Austria. The symposium is a chance to get in dialogue with them and so with a world shaping force of ideas.
The last party congress formulated specific targets for the development in China until 2035 and 2050. How will China shape the world development? Will it be a contribution to the progress of mankind? What about threats and chances? Is the New Silk Road as the most outstanding investment strategy in history also relevant for Austria?
