The first book on contemporary Greece ever published in China was
presented in Beijing on Friday. The 428-page book was written by
assistant professor and researcher at the Institute of European
Studies Song Xiaomin, who has had a long and fruitful collaboration
with the Press and Communication Office of the Greek Embassy. The
book, published by China's most prestigious and influential think
tank, the Institute of European Studies, Chinese Academy of Social
Sciences, Chinese Journal of European Studies is written in Chinese
and depicts various aspects of contemporary Greece such as its
history, its political system, economy, culture and tourism.
The book is prefaced by Minister of State and Government Spokesman
Theodoros Roussopoulos, and contains a message by Greek Ambassador to
Beijing Michalis Kambanis.
In his preface Roussopoulos stresses that the book comes at a very
exciting time, just before the Beijing Olympics and after the Athens
2004 Games, thus strengthening the bonds between the two countries,
inviting the two peoples to learn more about each other. "My country
offers brand new reasons why it should be rediscovered, loved, and
respected" Roussopoulos writes. ===============================
