Today's China in Light of the Past
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing modern China with reference to long-standing beliefs and practices. As a culture both ancient and so new as to be positively modern, China remains a study in contrasts. Guangdong International Trust & Investment Corporation (GITIC) was forced by the government to go bankrupt when it was not destitute, but the government was alarmed over what it perceived to be the same types of patterns that preceded the currency and banking crisis in Japan and determined to force the GITIC to cease making what it believed were loans of questionable value. China remains an official 'big emerging market,' but it is yet unclear just what form of government and economic structure will grow from the current chaos. Bibliography lists 23 sources.
