Demystifying China’s Mega Trends: The Driving Forces That Will Shake Up China and the World


Add your own review!

Overview

The biggest causes of dissatisfaction in the current analysis of China's mega trends is the lack of serious economic research effort. This has resulted in confusion and misunderstanding about the development and direction of mega trends and blind acceptance of these trends. This all leads to potentially erroneous business and policy decisions and reactions to the emergence of China. This new book examines the structural forces behind mega trends in China, refuting conventional wisdom and demystifying media and market hype. It aims to bridge the gap between the East and the West, and academic and market studies of China by examining China's macroeconomic mega trends through the lens of rigorous economic research and evidence and taking a critical approach to question and assess the evolution of these mega trends. Coverage of China's mega trends in this book is not meant to be exhaustive, as new trends will emerge over time and the existing trends will keep on evolving.

Reviews

"Bridging East and West perspectives and academic and market studies, Lo examines China's macroeconomic mega trends using vigorous research and evidence. His analysis is critical rather than descriptive, he says, and does not take trends for granted but assesses their evolution. Among his topics are future growth: more than a binary outcome, demographics: what else before hitting the wall, the ""debt bomb"" and de-leveraging dilemma, the belt and road strategic plan, and the future of the Renminbi. -- Annotation ©2017 Ringgold Inc. * (protoview.com) *"
