The Questions

+ Is there one aspect of life in China today that's emblematic of the turmoil confronting young Chinese?

+ As young people in China develop a taste for the good life, do old values and traditions still apply in some fundamental way?

+ Do Chinese have less contact with the state today than in the past?

+ What will be the long-term consequences of the May 2008 earthquake in Sichuan province?

+ As China continues to mix capitalistic economics and Communist government, what is the balance between freedom and risk, especially for this young generation?
