The word \\u2018West\\u2019 is often used as a shorthand to describe liberal democracies in Europe, and perhaps in Asia too, such that we\\u2019ll often talk about \\u2018the West\\u2019s attitude to China\\u2019, or the \\u2018West\\u2019s relations with China\\u2019. But this is at best a lazy shorthand \\u2013 because when you dig a little deeper, it\\u2019s clear that there is no unified West on China. On this episode, I'm joined by Noah Barkin, senior advisor at the Rhodium Group and author of the Watching China in Europe newsletter with the German Marshall Fund, to disaggregate the idea of \\u2018the West\\u2019, focusing especially on the continent of Europe. How do different European nation states, institutions, and even political parties see China differently?
