Recommended: Pollution in china

China’s economy experienced a stunning growth the past couple decades and the future once looked promising. The methods that China used to grow could cause the downfall of its economic growth. What had been called the “Golden Years” could be over, which was a time of economic prosperity and growth. The growth could be affected from the political corruption, which can scare away foreign investment. Economic growth caused the housing bubble, which could bring down the economy. China’s growth also spurned the idea of protecting the environment that has caused pollution and environmental issues. The Chinese economy does not have a great economic future due to political corruption, the housing bubble, the pollution and environmental issues, and the loss of their comparative advantage.
The economy of China has been growing for the past three decades but recently it has been stagnating and that could be sign that end of the growth is near. Last year’s growth of 7.7% is “slightly above the market expectation” of 7.6% but that would have been the lowest number since 1999 (Wang 2014). All growth will eventually come to an end, an economy must be able to adjust to the occurring change. Different economical sectors must grow to accommodate the changing economy. Factory output has suffered and for five month low it was down to 9.7% (Wang 2014). If this is a sign of declining growth then the Chinese government will have to intervene and make the necessary corrections. Moving away from the industry sector to the service sector could be beneficial. China’s government is heavily involved with the economy and if the government fails to perform then the economy will suffer.

...the economy. Political corruption is ripe and there is very little that can be done to the top officials if they are corrupt. The shaky government is a reflection of the economy, which is beginning to show strains as the housing bubble nears popping. Investors believed that there would always be a need for more housing and unfortunately there are not enough buyers. All of the developments wreaked havoc on the environment and cause numerous issues. The pollution is hurting the GDP and the people of China. Factories that once caused the pollution are leaving to countries with even more relaxed regulations. This has forced China to pushed China to invest in other sectors which can be a risky gamble. China is losing its allure and is now faced with new task of adapting. If China cannot adapt then there will be no more growth, and the “Golden Years” will be for nothing.

  • The Positive Effects Of Deng Xiaoping's Impact On China

    1310 Words  | 3 Pages

    After Mao Zedong’s failed Cultural Revolution, the country was in a state of disarray. Political isolation had caused the economy to falter, while citizens struggled everyday to adhere to communist ideals. Collectivization and municipalization ran the nation, meaning the government had total control over the country which left citizens without a chance of earning their own money or providing for themselves. In turn, the quality of life in China decreased and riots began to break out. Deng Xiaoping was the leader that succeeded Mao after his death in 1976, and his reforms helped turn around the country’s economic and social situation. Careful strategic moves made by Deng allowed other countries to invest in China’s economy and the government gave people more control over their land and education. He also reduced the power of the government, moving away from Communism and towards democracy. Deng Xiaoping had a positive influence on China because he opened China up to the global markets and increased the quality of life for millions of people.

  • Impact of Globalization in China

    China’s economy is one very large indicator of its role in globalization. “In 2010 China became the world’s largest exporter” (CIA World Factbook). Without China many places such as the United States of America would be without billions of goods imported from China annually. An influx of companies moving their manufacturing to China has allowed people to flock to cities and find jobs. China’s economy has grown exponentially over the last few decades. In the last three years China’s economy has grown by nearly ten percent every year. Despite this influx of money to China it has also resulted in many drawbacks. For example, China’s environment has been obliterated. China burns more coal than every country in the world combined. Beijing has been so badly polluted that there are actually companies that sell cans of fresh air to people, and gas masks are a common sight. On January 12th 2013 Beijing’s air pollution reached a record setting 775 PPM. To put that into perspective, the scale for measuring pollution is 0-500 PPM. This set an all-time recorded high. In Los Angeles a high ...

  • The Nonthreatening Rise of China

    1952 Words  | 4 Pages

    Since 1978, this aforementioned economic growth has been occurring under a communist government (Dellios). China operates in a system described as “socialism with Chinese characteristics”, a common theme in this country’s rise in the modern world (Dellios). Correspondingly, according to Rosita Dellios, Chinese communists adopted this political regime under Mao Zedong, which led to its economic revolution in the 20th century. This formula proved successful as it initiated the Chinese Communist Party, amending China’s interior chaos (Dellios). Therefore, China’s communist control did not negatively affect China’s economic growth, as communism rehabilitation drove this country into modernization in the 21st century.

  • The Effects of Population Growth in China

    1744 Words  | 4 Pages

    Though China is the world's fifth-largest country in terms of area and the second largest country in Asia, it is the most populous country in the world. There is over one billion Chinese people which is 19 percent of the world's population and the population still keeps growing. From 2000 to 2010, Chinese population growth is about 6.2% and if we compared the population from 1960 with 2010, the population had grown more than 100%. While half of Chinese people live in the rural areas, the urban population is growing rapidly. In January 2012, urban population has exceeded the rural population for the first time. Now about 100 million rural people become migrant workers which move in and out the cities in search of work. This has caused many problems in China , since in the past and the present day, such as traffic jams in the city, pollution, and most importantly the shortage of food and shelter.

  • China's Development

    1177 Words  | 3 Pages

    When the new Chinese Government was set up in 1949, the new government faced a lot of problems. First on their agenda was how to re-build the country. As Communist Party of China (CPC) is a socialist party, their policies at the time were similar to that of the Soviet Union’s. Consequently, the CPC used a centrally planned strategy as its economic strategy when it first began. For a long time, the Chinese economy was a centrally planned economy in which none other than the state owned all companies. In fact, there were absolutely no entrepreneurs. As time went on, the problems of a centrally planned economy started to appear, such as low productivity, which was the key reason for restricting the development of China. With the population growing, the limitations of the centrally planned economy were clear. In 1978 China started its economic reform whose goal was to generate sufficient surplus value to finance the modernization of the Chinese economy. In the beginning, in the late 1970s and early 19...

  • Internal Barriers To Economic Growth And Development Essay

    778 Words  | 2 Pages

    Political instability and corruption is a major impact on growth. The rule of law and appropriate enforcement is needed to create an established system of honesty and loyalty in society. Corruption is people acting in an official capacity of trust and responsibility misusing their position for private gain. When there is this sense of corruption many things are affected. Corruption discourages investment due to lack of business ethics. There is an increase in tax evasion as well as an increase in more “tax burdens” for the poor which is inherently wrong. Corruption leads to an unfair allocation of resources. If contracts go to the highest bidder, as opposed to the most efficient producer, then there is market failure and resources are being misallocated. If often sustains inefficient producers by shielding them from competition. Finally, Corruption means that officials will often divert public investment into capital projects where bribes are more likely. This reduces the quality of government services for the population. The monetary gains from corruption are often moved out of the country. This is a form of capital flight and it reduces the capital available for internal use.
