Welcome to the Seneca Podcast, the weekly discussion of current affairs in China. In this program, we'll look at books, ideas, new research, intellectual currents, and cultural trends that can help us better understand what's happening in China's politics, foreign relations, economics, and society. Join me each week for in-depth conversations that shed more light. and bring less heat to how we think and talk about China. I'm Kaiser Guo coming to you this week from Beijing.

It is great to be back again. I am at the home of Michael Cherney, the home slash studio of the artist Michael Cherney, who I will talk about a little more in the recommendations section. Seneca is supported this year by the Center for East Asian Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, a national resource center for the study of East Asia. The Seneca podcast will remain, as always, free. But if you work for an organization that believes in what I'm doing with the podcast, please consider lending your support.
