From the Paper "Again, China?s inability to keep up with growing industrialization and as a result growing demand for resources such as electricity can result in a dampening effect on growth, if not addressed. Another consequence of China?s rapid economic growth has been severe environmental pollution and China now accounting for over 13% of the world?s carbon emissions. Failure to check this will lead to growing health care problems, which may add to the burden of providing for the weaker sections of society."

Abstract "China's trade surplus with the U.S. last year swelled to $124 billion up from $103 billion a year earlier. And the strength of its manufacturing sector in everything from clothing to TVs means that it is being blamed for the woes of U.S. workers." (Taken from Business Week, 12th April, 2004) This paper comments on this statement and assesses the trading and business issues between the U.S.A. and China, including the pressure for China to open its domestic markets to foreign competition, especially since joining the World Trade Organisation.
From the Paper "Globalization has driven trade and business engagements between the United States and China to unprecedented levels, creating an economic interdependence not seen before. China is now the United States' second largest source of imports and the largest trade deficit partner. China's growing economic prowess is regarded by many as the cause of higher unemployment in the United States and US entrepreneurs express frustrations over access into the Chinese market. Despite improving political relations between these two nations, US - China relations have entered into a new phase in which issues of trade, economics and finance traditionally considered among the most positive and beneficial aspects of the relationship have increasingly become matters of dispute and friction."

From the Paper "Impact of US/China Trade on US Business and the Economy
Introduction
The debate over whether or not the United States should continue to expand its trade relationship with China has heated up significantly over the last several years. Even with China's accession into the World Trade Organization (WTO), questions still abound as to the moral, political and economic consequences of such action. Concerns over human rights for the people of China, the likelihood of the Chinese government's compliance with its WTO agreement, and mass corruption among local government officials in China bring into doubt the true benefits of such an agreement.
Proponents of increased trade with China argue that the ..."

U.S. vs. China Legal Systems, 2007. This paper discusses and compares the legal systems of the U.S. and of China. 1,700 words (approx. 6.8 pages), 10 sources, MLA, $ 55.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract In this article, the writer discusses that the U.S. criminal justice system is framed after the ideal of justice for all and equal protection for all through a common civil law, interpreted by its courts. On the other hand, the writer notes that codified laws and statutes established by the legislature have guided China's criminal justice system. The writer discusses that the cultural differences between the U.S. and China are seen to be simplified and bridged by modern information technology, and many observe concrete progress in the replacement of the rule of men with the rule of law. The writer concludes that some still believe that Mao Zedong is the greatest revolutionary, that Abraham Lincoln was a dictator who destroyed the ideals of the colonists and that the American criminal justice system has now become one of the most corrupt in the world.

From the Paper "Sachs writes that despite America's overall wealth as a nation, its people now live in a society of great and indescribable fear of their legal system, their lawyers and the prison system, the loss of health care in a system with no health plan and losing their jobs. He says that Americans are afraid of questioning the system and become gullible victims to propaganda. The issue on terrorism has so engaged them that their attention has been swayed out of their own society's ills. Sachs believes that they have projected their fear into foreign terrorists and ignored the increasing corruption and repression in their legal system. Lawyers, judges and courts trample upon the freedom Americans thought they had. He warns travelers and those wanting to visit or work in America to reconsider the risks of being in a country with one of the most crooked legal systems in the world."

"China's Economy: U.S. and E.U. Get Tough on Textiles", 2005. A review of the article "China's Economy: U.S. and E.U. Get Tough on Textiles". 900 words (approx. 3.6 pages), 5 sources, $ 35.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract "This paper discusses an article from the Economist Intelligence Unit, a publication of The Economist, entitled "China's Economy: U.S. and E.U. Get Tough on Textiles" as it relates to the price pressures on apparels in the U.S. market. These issues are examined from a macroeconomic perspective with an emphasis on Keynesian and neo-classical macroeconomic theory.
From the Paper "Following the end of quotas on textile imports from China as of 1 January 2005, both the United States (US) and the European Union (EU) have witnessed a massive influx of textile imports from China: "U.S. imports of Chinese clothing swelled in January, a rush of new products following the end of international quotas that for decades had limited global apparel trade" (Chinese, 2005, para.1). While increases have been across the board, three categories in particular have seen huge increases: cotton knit shirts, blouses and cotton trousers, and these have been targeted for renewed protectionist quotas by both the US and the EU (China, 2005, para.2).

U.S. Trade Balance and Exchange Rate, 2006. This paper analyzes the issue of the U.S. trade balance and its significant impact on the exchange rate in America due to the burgeoning trade deficit and declining value of the dollar against other major world currencies. 1,922 words (approx. 7.7 pages), 10 sources, MLA, $ 61.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper examines the relationship between the trade balance and the exchange rate. The writer details the general rule of economics that states a negative trade deficit normally leads to a weaker currency while trade surplus results in enhanced value of currency, although there are exceptions to the rule, which are detailed in this paper. This paper discusses the issue of the U.S. trade balance and its effect on the exchange rate of the country's currency which is currently in the limelight due to the burgeoning U.S. trade deficit and the declining value of the dollar against other major world currencies. The writer of this paper delves into America's economy against that of China's and questions whether the U.S. dollar will retain its status of the reserve currency in the long run. This paper touches on the opinions and views of economists and U.S. treasury officials who contend that the current trade deficit is nothing to be alarmed about as the country's economy and the U.S. dollar survived a similar slide in the late 1980s. This paper also discusses the opinion of the U.S. administration that believes the alleged under-valuation of the Chinese Yen is a prime source for the deficit problems since there is a huge and growing trade imbalance between the U.S. exports and imports to China. The well-researched and well-written paper clearly define the terms: Trade balance, exchange rate and reserve currency.

From the Paper "The key question is, can the US dollar retain its status of the resrve currency for long? History suggests that it may not. Before the advent of the dollar as the world's reserve currency, the British Pound had enjoyed such a status. Between the two World Wars and the post-World War II period saw the weakeing of the British economy. As a result, the British Pound was devalued by 30% in 1949, effectively ending its run as the world's reserve currency and the start of the dollar's reign. Dollar has been able to retain its status as the reserve currency since it was relatively stable, was backed up by the formidable economy of the US, low interest rates and the absence of an alternative currency."

Conclusion
From the Paper "It can be more useful to regard China as a continent rather than a country. It occupies 9.5 million square miles (slightly larger than the United States) but is composed of a collection of regions. These regions are differentiated by culture, dialect and level of economic development and can be quite competitive with each other. China has 1.3 billion people and grows about 10 million per year. There are really two Chinas when a firm is looking at it from a business opportunity standpoint. 900million people live in rural areas with an average annual income of less than $100 US. 400 million people live in the more developed areas along the East coast and Yangtze River and have an average annual income of $800.

From the Paper "This difference that Williamson addresses is one which plays a profound role in the strategy of the Chinese government when considering increasing trade relations. The Western model of capitalism is based on the belief that industry, when left alone grows and prospers within a free market economy, one that not only provides substance for its citizens but also leaves a surplus for export. In China, however, success is based on the exchange of economic advantages for political favors, major profits for technological innovation, and multilateral agreements with other Asian nations where vital resources are at stake."

China and the U.S., 2008. An analysis of the growing influence of China as an economic power and what the U.S. must do to retain its hegemon status. 2,179 words (approx. 8.7 pages), 7 sources, MLA, $ 67.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper discusses how China's influence as an economic power has grown dramatically in the past few decades and how the Chinese have taken advantage of its seemingly endless pool of cheap labor to make itself the center of global manufacturing. The paper relates that this has led to heavy foreign investment, the opening of its economy, and a sharp rise in GDP per capita. The paper also discusses the domestic and foreign policy issues the US must tackle if it wants to retain its hegemon status.
From the Paper "Next, America must lead the global fight on global warming. Environmental issues are going to be at the forefront in the 21st century and the US must lead the way. The US is currently the leading culprit in carbon emissions which we need to drastically reduce. We need to heavily invest in renewable energy resources, both for the health of our planet and also to reduce our dependence on foreign oil. Our industrial plants need to be retrofitted and modernized to cut down on their emissions. The US auto industry needs to raise fuel efficiency standards significantly and also develop cars that will eventually no longer need fuel. Furthermore, every community should have recycling facilities. Americans are filling up too many landfills. The US also needs to join the Kyoto Protocol and then improve on it. America needs to show that the long term interests of our planet greatly outweigh that of our short term economic interests. "

Is China a Threat to the U.S. Economy?, 2007. This paper analyzes whether the growing Chinese economy is a threat to the United States. 1,481 words (approx. 5.9 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 48.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper discusses how many people feel threatened by the rapid growth of China's economy. Some are concerned that China's large population of low-cost workers will eventually damage the United States' economy. Many worry that China's inexpensive goods will cause trade problems. Despite these concerns, the paper notes that China's growing and evolving market actually presents opportunities for the U.S. economy. The paper explains that China's rapid economic growth has helped improve the world's economy and the U.S. is strong enough to compete with the Chinese companies. The paper adds that Americans stand to benefit by learning from current Chinese values: a hardworking attitude, entrepreneurship, ambition and problem-solving abilities.
From the Paper "China's fast economic growth, foreign direct investment, and large share in foreign trade markets confirm that China is indeed a rising economic power (Lardy, 2002). For this reason, many Americans are quick to blame China for a loss of jobs in the U.S. and for the increasing bilateral trade deficit that the United States has with China. However, it is also important to consider China as the fastest-growing large U.S. export market and see the opportunities rather than just the threats."

China's Impact on the U.S. Economy, 2008. An analysis of the impact of China on the US economy, specifically interest rates. 1,103 words (approx. 4.4 pages), 5 sources, APA, $ 38.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper analyzes China's impact of the United States economy. It first analyzes China's economy, particularly its economic reforms from 1976 until 2006. The paper then discusses the US low savings rate versus China's high savings rate, the purchasing power of the U.S. consumers and how many companies of the U.S. have set up widespread manufacturing operations in China. It also looks at how China has helped in keeping the US interest rates at a relatively low level.
From the Paper "Due to its low savings rate, the U.S. economy is heavily dependent on countries such as China with a high savings rate, for its foreign capital inflows for promoting growth and funding the federal budget deficit. China has interceded in the currency markets to a great extent for limiting the appreciation of the Yuan. Due to this, China has become the fastest and largest growing holder of FER -- Foreign Exchange Reserves in the world, which amounted to $1.4 trillion as on September, 2007. A large share of its FER is invested by China in U.S. Securities, totaling almost $699 billion on June, 2006 which makes it the 2nd largest foreign holder of U.S. Securities, the 1st being Japan. Almost 16.8 percent of the total foreign ownership of the U.S. Treasury Securities was held by China in October 2007, amounting to $388 billion. Some policymakers of the U.S. are concerned that these large holdings might be used by China to influence certain U.S. policies which they oppose. All this goes to show the stronghold which China has over the U.S. and how it will impact the U.S. economy in the future. (Morrison; Labonte, 2008)"

U.S.-China Trade Relations, 2004. An analysis of trade patterns between the United States and China. 798 words (approx. 3.2 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 28.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper discusses the trade patterns between the United States and China throughout the years. The paper examines the history of China as a government, particularly as a political and economic power in the Asian region. The paper explains that the history of trade between the two countries can be traced best through three periods in history, which may also be identified as the three phases of China's establishment and development of trade relations with the United States. These phases are explored in the paper and include early trade relations between the two countries in the first century AD, the period after the collapse of the Socialist experiment in Asia, and the integration of China into the world market.
From the Paper "The first phase involves early trade relations between the two countries in the first century AD, a period wherein the barter system was in operation. During this period, US has yet to be known as an independent nation, and was simply referred to as the Americas. Trade between China and the Americas simply involved the exchange of essential goods that each country had-China with its supply of silk, gun powder, and porcelain, and the Americas with its staple foodstuffs. In this phase, trade was in its crudest form, and would be hampered with the increasing level of isolation that China had imposed upon itself through the coming years. Thus, after the first phase, trade relations between the two countries lagged, and eventually became non-existent, especially with the development of China in the early- and mid-20th century as a Communist country."

Women's Rights in China and the U.S., 2001. The purpose of this paper is to introduce, discuss and analyze the rights of women in China and the United States. 1,100 words (approx. 4.4 pages), 6 sources, $ 38.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper compares the level of women?s rights in the two countries. It compares historical voting rights, political power, positions in legislative systems, domestic violence, infanticide and the one child policy. There is also an account of Chinese women?s prison. Includes many numerical comparison and discusses cloaking of actual figures by government agencies.
From the paper:
"The "China Daily," discusses women's rights in China in a positive manner, bringing up several points that show women in China have no fewer rights than women in the United States. Unfortunately, there are many topics that were not discussed in this paper, that prove women in China still have a long road ahead of them in achieving true equal rights.
The article says that women of China did not have to wait 144 years after the forming of a constitution to vote. "American women belatedly obtained equal voting rights 144 years after the founding of the United States, while Chinese women were grated such rights immediately after the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949" (Editors, 1995)."
