The Chinese path to sustainable development
The so-called “capitalism with Chinese characteristics”, with its astonishing economic achievements, is not only shaping the present and future of the world economies, but is also increasingly gaining appeal as an alternative model in the developing world. This research project aims to provide insights into the strengths and weaknesses of the Chinese mix of state intervention and capitalism. The “sustainable development imperatives”, which the Chinese government has identified as the main means to balance the country’s unpredictable growth, are the lenses through which the analysis is carried out.
