Pour faire échos à la discussion sur la Chine l'autre jour dans je ne sais plus quel topic, un texte sur l'influence chinoise grandissante dans les milieux universitaires américains : https://quillette.com/2018/12/23/americ … a-problem/
Ten years later, fear of offending the Communist regime has spread to American campuses Some of the blame belongs with China, but much of it belongs with the US universities themselves. By becoming ever more reliant on Chinese money they have placed themselves in a profound conflict of interest: adhere to academic freedom or please Beijing. Economic reliance on China has increased vastly in the last decade. Universities recruited Chinese students in record numbers. Enrollments soared by 400 percent. Chinese pay tuition worth an estimated $12 billion per year, according to the US Department of Commerce.
Ca a limite quelque chose de fascinant, l'affirmation de cette puissance qui trouve des ramifications absolument partout.
