China Redux

Many thanks to Jeremiah at Granite Studio for the honor of being added to the (growing) list of “Thinking Bloggers,” or blogs that make you think. Here’s my list, which attempt to avoid redundancies with the other lists out there:

1. China Matters: Don’t let the long posts put you off; keep reading because it’s worth your time. Always incisive and deep analysis of foreign policy matters, including China.

2. Publishing 2.0: One of the non-China blogs I turn to most frequently. Hands-down one of the most thoughtful and valuable provocateurs writing on the business of technology, media, the worldwide web, and publishing. I frequently disagree with Scott, but his blog always forces me to reevaluate my assumptions and ideas.

3. Brad DeLong’s Semi-Daily Journal: Musings of the esteemed economist. There’s always something there to get me going.

4. Angry Chinese Blogger: One-of-a-kind China blog that always make me think. ACB frequently lives up to its mission of covering events and information in China that go unnoticed or misreported.

5. PCR Project Blog: Tracking all the post-conflict reconstruction issues you need to know about, from former colleagues at the estimable PCR Project at CSIS. I hope it will move towards offering more analysis, but the PCR blog team is prolific and comprehensive in a crucial area.

That’s a diverse group of five that always gets me thinking. So many more, so few awards to give out…
