Abstract
Few would dispute that China has acquired considerable economic and political powers in the region. Despite achieving progress, liberal economic policies in China have caused many social ills including the rise of criminal syndicates. This paper examines the recent rise of crime in China placing it in the context of economic and political progress and argues that the latter is cohesive enough to outweigh crimes in future China.

From the Paper
"In the concluding chapter to his book "Governing China" Kenneth Lieberthal presents his readers with a series of the most likely outcomes of China's current situation for the immediate future. This essay will analyze Lieberthal's presentation, with a particular focus on the option that Lieberthal describes as an "elite authoritarian nationalist system," (Lieberthal 334). This essay will argue the thesis that this is the most plausible scenario for China's development in the immediate future, with "soft and corrupt authoritarian system" followed by general "success" as the less likely options."

Abstract
This paper looks at four scenarios - the rise to power of China and India, the persistence of American hyper-power status, the rise of an Islamic Caliphate, and a "cycle of fear" scenario wherein the world becomes noticeably Orwellian and where intrusive security measures are the norm. The paper discusses which one of the four scenarios is most likely to materialize and why and then examines the theoretical assumptions upon which the aforementioned prediction is predicated. The paper concludes that the world of tomorrow promises to be one dominated by the Asian superpowers of China and especially, India.
From the Paper
"The trends and the implicit/explicit theoretical assumptions guiding this writer to the conclusion that the rise of India and China to pre-eminence is the most likely of all the four scenarios outlined above are numerous but easily explained. Most of all, demographic trends are key. This writer operates under the assumption that the country with the greatest latent human resources will eventually win - even if it initially trails a competitor. Clearly, both nations have this advantage to the fullest. Working especially in India's favor is the fact that this nation has not embarked upon a ruinous "one-child" program as has China; consequently, India's population will not age (is not now aging) as rapidly as China's. Therefore, India will cut into whatever human resources advantage China has by virtue of having a relatively younger and thus more industrious population."

Abstract
This paper discusses General Motors (GM) in terms of its historical past, current financial and market difficulties, and its future prospects. Particularly, the contributions of Alfred P. Sloan, Jr. are examined, the increasing pace of the loss of market share, and its future prospects in emerging markets such as China. The conclusion is made that GM needs to shut down some of its brands, renegotiate union contracts, and improve styling.
From the Paper
"General Motors Corporation (GM) is the world's largest automobile manufacturer with manufacturing operations in 32 countries, operational presence in more than 190 countries, and a global market share in the automobile industry of approximately 14.7% (General...SWOT). As GM describes its operations in its 2004 Annual Report, it has automotive operations in 4 regions: GM North America (GMNA), GM Europe (GME), GM Latin America/Africa/Mid-East (GMLAAM), and GM Asia Pacific (GMAP) (46). GM also operates one of the industry's largest financing businesses: General Motors Acceptance Corporation or GMAC, which also has a large mortgage and insurance component (Beucke, par.10). Additionally, GM operates OnStar, the industry's recognized market leader in "vehicle safety, security, and information services" (General...SWOT 5)."

The Future of the PRC, 2005.
This paper discusses the future of the PRC as something other than Liberal Democracy.
900 words (approx. 3.6 pages), 2 sources, $ 35.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses that liberal democracy is probably impossible in China and would not suit polity, or economy, or geography. The writer points out that the public is not as keen on democracy as on a stable, well run state, that allows mixed economy to develop. The paper refers to Lieberthal's five possibilities for the future, suggesting combined system of capitalist activity and the framework and order provided by strong central Party government.
From the Paper
"Lieberthal's prognosis for the future involves five possible outcomes. However, this section was written before Globalization had taken the form that is has now, and the unexpected industrial development of China that was given new power by the return of Hong Kong in 1997. The future of China involves debate in all the tendencies that Lieberthal discussed, plus Globalization's record in Asia, the steady shift to a Chinese market economy, institutional change, but also, the pull of what is very old, in a stratifying society that does not expect good government."

From the Paper
"The demographic dilemma is certainly a cause for concern for Japan's economy but it appears that Japan will be able to cope with the shortage during the next 20 years. Japan has not been very receptive to the 'guest workers' for meeting its manpower requirements but a future shortage may change that situation. Increased productivity, late retirement, more participant of women in work force and possibility of using foreign workers are some of the options that can be used to meet the manpower requirement of the economy. Japan has the highest number of robots in use in the world [CIA Report on Japan Economy, 2005, the automation is another solution to the manpower shortage. "

Abstract
This paper reviews Burstein and de Keijzer's "Big Dragon China's Future: What it Means for Business, the Economy, and the Global Order" in which both authors predict that by the 2030s China will be the world's largest economy. This paper discusses the various companies that have suffered due to the shifting politics of foreign policy between China being in favor one day and out the next. This paper also details the views of Jeffrey Garten, a writer for "Harvard Business Review" who sees China as enticement for foreign investors, yet stresses caution should be used in developing any business relationship with China. This well-written paper covers several areas regarding China's economy including a U.S. initiative supporting China's membership in the World Trade Organization, expansion of U.S. public-private partnerships to invest and help solve particular problems in China and development of China's policy mutually with U.S. allies. "Big Dragon" profiles many individual Chinese entrepreneurs and others who are bringing a new China into being. This paper also focuses on Zhang Wei, one of China's more successful entrepreneurs, who went from government researcher to heading a company employing 400 in only three years. Despite the differences between practices in China and other countries, many corporations are willing to take a big gamble on China, seeing that their future is dependent on their performance in China.
From the Paper
"Over the course of his history, Zhang has captured the essence of the Chinese business world of "catch-as-catch-can". His corporation has various types of holdings, often-different one from the other. Zhang has bridged the gap across the Pacific with the United States with his position of "master franchise holder in China" of an American company, Fun World. What makes this situation particularly unique is that it is one of the first companies in China "to buy an interest in a U.S. company." At the time Big Dragon was written, Zhang was "negotiating an arrangement that would shift manufacturing of all the equipment for the centers to China." Zhang hopes to take the U.S. company over altogether, including the export of the concept to "other countries and selling the franchisees Chinese-made equipment." Zhang has encountered some problems along the way, problems that are compounded by China's culture and lack of laws, which govern specific business issues. One is that franchisees have stolen the company name and have opened their own centers."

Abstract
This paper explains that Chiang Kai-Shek believed that the imperialism and colonialism of the "Unequal Treaties" with Britain, Japan, the U.S. and Russia were a major reason for China's inability to develop any kind of an economy during the early part of the 20th Century. The author points out that, since the 1980s, China has been encouraging foreign investment by using "special economic zones" for foreign business, joining the World Trade Organization (WTO) and opening foreign competition with Chinese manufacturers especially in the retail petroleum sector. The paper concludes that the RAND Corporation's study of China's economy stresses that a major risk to the continued rapid growth of China's economy is the fragility of its financial system and state-owned businesses.

"China is the world's most populous nation and the "second largest energy consumer" in the world, right after the United States, according to the Energy Information Administration (EIA) of the U.S. Department of Energy. China's dominant fuel at the present time is coal; China produces more coal - and consumes more coal - than any country on the planet. China also has recently passed Japan as the second-biggest consumer of petroleum, and China is a huge player in oil markets."

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that assessing the nature of China's future strategic intelligence intentions in the 21st century requires examining China's strategic objectives, for doing so will reveal the intelligence activities that must be engaged in if China is to achieve these strategic objectives. The writer maintains that it is evident that one of China's primary strategic objectives is to become an economic superpower. Furthermore, the writer maintains that it is also evident that in order to achieve this, engaging in economic espionage against the United States is necessary because this will confer economic advantages upon China while enabling Beijing to undermine and weaken the U.S. economy.
From the Paper
"It is evident that one of China's strategic objectives is to become an economic superpower, for this would not only expand Chinese influence throughout the world, it would enable China to become a military superpower equivalent to or even greater than the United States. In order to achieve this strategic objective, China is likely to expand its economic espionage capabilities.
"This would confer significant advantages upon China and enable Beijing to expand its economy while undermining the economy of the United States. Economic espionage is beneficial for China because it furthers China's strategic objectives by enabling Beijing to measure long-term success by enhanced market share for its products, and consequently achieve a favorable balance of trade."

From the Paper
"China-the most populous country in the world-has exhibited remarkably high levels of sustained economic growth in the two decades since it reformed its economy following the death of Mao Zedong in 1976. According to some analysts, the country is poised to become the number one economy in the world sometime in the mid-twenty first century. There are, however, certain political issues that could prove to be the proverbial 'fly in the ointment' in the path of China's rightful role in the future world affairs. One of them is the 'Taiwan affair'-a problem that has defied a satisfactory resolution ever since the Communist forces defeated the Kuomintang in the Chinese Civil War in 1949 and Chiang Kai-Shek retreated to Taiwan along with 2 million of his supporters from the Mainland China. The political status of Taiwan (or the state of Republic of China) has, since that time, been a source of concern for China as well as the rest of the world."

Abstract
This paper reviews how the Chinese government implemented a strict one-child policy decades ago in order to control its drastic population explosion. The author indicates that although the policy was enforced with reward and punishment, it has been largely successful. However, this policy, against natural process of reproduction, is creating serious social issues such as gender imbalance and orphans. The policy is very controversial due to its inhumane approach including mass sterilizations and forced abortions, and the policy also violates a human right of reproduction. This paper examines whether China can supply enough food, jobs and places to live for its people despite this policy and what problems China will face in the future.
From the Paper
"More than a fifth of the world's population lives in China today. Even though Chinese government had implemented a fairly successful One-child policy, Chinese population will continue to grow until it is estimated to level off sometime before 2100. Chinese government was successful in making people believe that having more than one child is not good for China's future. On the other hand, strict and inhumane policy had raised some issues in terms of basic human rights in reproduction and also damage to traditional values. However controversial the policy was, it helped to control China's population growth. The question China must answer is; Can China support itself today, and in the future?"

Abstract
This paper reviews "Understanding China: A Guide to China's Economy, History and Political Structure" by John Bryan Starr. This paper discusses China's ancient culture and its emergence as one of the foremost powers in the modern world. This paper focuses on China's recent admission to the World Trade Organization and as well as its economy which is set to become the largest in the world within the next few years. The writer of this paper examines China's political history and contends that in spite of the country's numerous transformations, the structure of the government is today fundamentally identical with what it was under the later imperial dynasties. Today, there is no emperor at the top, but instead a small committee of the leading members of various political parties who hold much the same position. Although there had been significant changes in China's economy, few political changes transpired. The communists still hold a monopoly of power and although its economic policies scarcely seem to be communist anymore, it does not intend to relax its political grip.
From the Paper
"Starr contends that China remains one of the most self-contained and hence inscrutable countries in the world. It has an ancient culture of major historical importance, and has been emerging as one of the foremost powers of the modern world. It is the third largest country in the world and certainly the most populous, with about one-fifth of the world's total population. Modern communications make it as easy to reach Beijing from London or New York as it is to get to Singapore or Nairobi. Yet China remains little known and poorly understood; few foreigners learn its language or study its history and culture. Although foreign trade and tourism have increased dramatically in the last decade, they are only very slowly leading to any changes in foreign perceptions of China."

USA and China Hostilities, 2008.
This paper addresses the issues of America's trade imbalance with China and China's industrial spying.

Abstract
The paper discusses America's trade imbalance with China that is fueled by China's failure to prevent copyright infringement and the sale of counterfeit goods as well as China's artificial currency devaluation. The paper also looks at the issue of Chinese spies stealing industrial secrets from American and European firms. The paper provides suggestions for improvement and argues that America needs to peacefully use their economic position to force China to compete fairly. The paper asserts that America should use legal, diplomatic and media pressure to force China to behave ethically.
From the Paper
"The United States and China have a long history of hostility and distrust. In recent years this hostility has centered on several economic issues. These include America's trade imbalance with China, a deficit fueled in part by a huge Chinese market in pirated American intellectual property and brand name knock-offs. Further, U.S. and European firms claim that Chinese industrial spies have stolen technology for products ranging from computer chips to cruise missiles."
