Economic growth in China and Europe: structural patterns and challenges

Meer over het boek

China has emerged as a significant force in the 21st century, transitioning from an "international nobody" to a "global player" in just a few decades. This rapid rise has elicited a mix of admiration and concern from America and Europe, as the accompanying tensions in political, economic, and social spheres pose challenges that must be addressed for China's rightful place in the global arena. The developments within China are crucial not only for its own growth but also for reshaping the dynamics of global power between established and emerging players. This volume aims to enhance understanding of these complex relationships and the opportunities for national and inter-regional development. Featuring 24 contributions, it covers a wide array of current economic and policy challenges faced by China and the European Union. The papers delve into long-term growth processes, examining policy options for sustainable development within and between these economic regions. Key topics include the reasons behind China's rapid economic growth, macroeconomic imbalances, industrial development, and the implications of trade and cooperation. The insights provided aim to inform strategies that can foster collaboration and address the bottlenecks in Sino-European economic relations.
