China's Futures - Scenarios for the World's Fastest Growing Economy, Ecology, and Society (Hardcover, 1st ed)

Three fascinating scenarios of China's future, demonstrating the impact of each on the world economy. One scenario shows China with a decentralised, village-based economy linked by wireless communication and transportation. Another demonstrates how kinship ties could become the matrix of the new economy. The third has China collapsing in a morass of corruption. The authors address important questions about the vast country's potential development, providing the basis for building business strategies. (Kirkus UK)

As it emerges from centuries of social, military, and political strife, China--which represents one fifth of the world's population and its third largest economy--is poised to play a major role in global business. But what will that role be? In this book, two experts, who have created business scenarios for some of the world's largest organizations--including Royal Dutch/Shell, AT&T, IBM, and Motorola--present three very informed versions of how China's future may unfold in the coming years and what it means to the rest of the world. These scenarios provide a foundation on which today's companies can build business strategies for years to come.
