Introducing Drum Tower
Our China correspondents analyse the stories at the heart of China and its changing role in the world in our new weekly podcast launching on November 14th
For almost seven centuries the beats of China’s most famous drum tower, or gulou, kept people in Beijing to time. Two of The Economist’s China correspondents, Alice Su and David Rennie, examine the way China is changing from within as well as its shifting influence beyond its borders.
They’ll be joined by our global network of correspondents and expert guests to unlock how everything from party politics to business, technology and culture is reshaping China and challenging the world order.
Drum Tower launches on November 14th.
