As China Goes, So Goes The World mobi 下载 网盘 caj lrf pdf txt 阿里云

In this revelatory examination of the most overlooked force that is changing the face of China, the Oxford historian and scholar of modern Asia Karl Gerth shows that as the Chinese c***umer goes, so goes the world. While Americans and Europeans have become increasingly worried about China’s competition for manufacturing jobs and energy resources, they have overlooked an even bigger story: China’s rapid development of an American-style c***umer culture, which is revolutionizing the lives of hundreds of milli*** of Chinese and has the potential to reshape the world.

This change is already well unde***ay. China has become the world’s largest c***umer of everything from automobiles to beer and has begun to adopt such c***umer habits as living in large single-occupancy homes, shopping in gigantic malls, and eating meat-based diets served in fast-food outlets. Even rural Chinese, long the laggards of c***umerism, have been buying refrigerators, televisi***, mobile phones, and larger houses in unprecedented numbers. As China Goes, So Goes the World reveals why we should all care about the everyday choices made by ordinary Chinese. Taken together, these seemingly small changes are deeper and more profound than the headline-grabbing stories on military budgets, carbon emissi***, or trade disputes.
