The Emerging Global Order: China's Outreach within a Managed and Competitive Framework for the Quads and Others

摘要

China's economic development and growth during the last part of this century are exemplary. Growth rates and the GDP exceeding 10% have allowed China to achieve economic development for its middle class. A significant proportion of its 1.3 billion individuals have been lifted out of poverty, and following the COVID-19 pandemic, the Chinese GDP for 2021 is estimated to exceed 6%. China is also leading in terms of innovation, artificial intelligence, and transportation. High-speed trains with speeds north of 200 kph have managed to connect the country and have made it possible for the rural population to move about and work in urban areas. Chinese workers in urban communities have managed to create a large financial savings pool and have sent back money to their rural families, making it possible for all Chinese to improve their lifestyles.
