ChinaTalk with David Dollar (Brookings Institution)
Jan 13, 2021Tap to summarizeOver the past 40 years, China has undergone an economic metamorphosis “from rags to riches”. However, the road to success was not easy. In its extraordinary history, China experienced failure, sudden changes in policy, and political system challenges. The rapid economic growth has carried with it huge economic and social costs. Are the structural reforms of the Xi Jinping era failures or successes? Is there a good replacement for the so-called “Flying geese” pattern, i.e. the export-led development model? Can China avoid the middle-income trap? What international challenges does China face and what conclusions should the country draw from its development to date? During the upcoming ChinaTalk meeting, we will talk with David Dollar from Brookings Institution, a nonprofit public policy organization based in Washington, DC. We will discuss structural reforms in China, which remain an extremely important issue, especially now, when the country is competing for the role of the economic world leader. The meeting will be hosted by Associate Professor Marcin Jacoby, Department of Asian Studies at SWPS University at SWPS University, and Zbigniew Niesiobędzki, Ph.D., President of the Polish-Chinese Business Council - a partner of the ChinaTalk series.

The Asian giant is not just a shopping platform. It also offers a variety of services, such as online payments, logistics services, e-marketing, and IT support for online businesses. Similar, grassroots technological start-ups that have been appearing in the communist China, are an interesting phenomenon, especially in the era of the China-US economic war and the ongoing coronavirus pandemic leading to a global economic crisis.
