CHINA'S PARADOX AND ITS ROLE IN THE WORLD ECONOMY

Synopsis

Many puzzles and paradoxes have accompanied China’s remarkable growth experience. Its growth path has also defied conventional wisdom.

How will it impact the world economy as it is on its way to becoming the soon-to-be largest economy in the world? The lecture will take an alternative lens that aims to uncover some misperceived realities in the Chinese economy.
