Synopsis

Why do some countries get rich and other countries dont? Does one countrys gain mean another countrys loss? How do we address the biggest challenge of all: the fact that our environment suffers when we all want to have our share of the cake? These key questions in international economics and business are addressed in this timely book. Covering issues such as economic growth, the drivers of economic growth and international competition, pollution and the division of labor, the book focuses on Chinas emergence, but examples of other countries provide context and perspective. Written in a jargon-free style yet extremely well-researched, it is suitable for economists and non-economists alike.

Revue de presse

The production of this book 'China Rising: Will the West be Able to Cope?' while Jan Willem Blankert was a fellow at Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy; his writing shows the cross-fertilization of ideas in an increasingly globalized world. Thoughtful analyses like this are essential for promoting better East-West understanding in this new era. Jan Willem Blankert has done the world a great service by producing this volume. --Kishore Mahbubani, Dean of the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy (NUS), author of The New Asian Hemisphere: The Irresistible Shift of Global Power to the East

Since China will continue to grow albeit at a slower pace the answer depends not only on Beijing's conduct, but on whether the US and Europe can adapt to a new world order, argues Jan Willem Blankert in a refreshingly counter-intuitive book China Rising: Will the West be Able to Cope? --The Business Times, Singapore

Once viewed with fear in the West, rising China is now seen as essential for the survival of the global economy. But does the West really have a coherent strategy towards China? And as China continues to post impressive growth rates despite the crisis, will Europe or America be able to cope? Jan Willem Blankert's book throws some much-needed light on these and other key challenges that the West faces as it strives to adapt to China's growing clout. --Shada Islam, Leads the Asia programme at the European Policy Centre in Brussels, and former EU correspondent of the Far Eastern Economic Review
