- Impressions:
The Common Bottom Line by Qin Hui highlights the idea of a shared bottom line that all political currents, from liberalism to social democracy, must respect. He warns that when freedom turns into crony capitalism or democracy into populism, society risks falling into new injustices and authoritarianism. Qin argues that modern societies should balance liberty and fairness while placing limits on power, offering readers both a sharp critique of China’s realities and a framework for political pluralism.
