Dragon versus eagle: the Chinese economy and U.S.-China relations

Synopsis

The Relationship Between China And The United States Is Particularly Complex, Especially When Discussing The Economic Relationship Between The Two Countries. One Reason Is That Westerners May Not Fully Understand The Nuances Of The Chinese Economy. Is It Capitalist Or Communist? A Superpower Or A Developing Nation? A Nation Defined By Its Growing Urban Middle Class Or Large Rural Population? And What Are The Impacts Of Its Great Internal Migration? These Are Just Some Of The Themes Covered In The Papers Presented In This Thought-provoking Volume -- Introduction / Wei-chiao Huang And Huizhong Zhou -- U.s.-china Economc Relations And Value Chains In Global Production Networks / Robert B.
