The Emergence of China in the Global Economy The Emergence of China in the Global Economy SPEAKER: Lester Thurow Jerome and Dorothy Lemelson Professor of Economics and Management The Emergence of ABOUT THE LECTURE: China in the Global Napoleon admonished the world to beware an awakened Economy China. 200 years later, Lester Thurow traces the astonishing Lester Thurow rise of this economic giant. In contrast to Russia, says Thurow, June 5, 2004 China solved the problem of moving from communism to 2:00 PM capitalism in less than two decades. Starting in 1978, Chinese leaders ended communes and gave hectares of land to Time 00:57:13 industrious peasants. Leaders also tested private enterprise in a succession of cities. By the mid 1990s, “the time had come to Audio Only: play the international game,” says Thurow. China sought QuickTime – 17MB technology and foreign investment. But “how do you sell a MP3 - 41MB country”? According to Thurow, China decided, “We’re the Audio and Video: cheapest place to make everything.” Foreign firms flooded in, QuickTime - 213MB selling equipment to China, or making products there and WindowsMedia - 176MB selling them back to the developed world. But now there are RealVideo - 94MB problems: China has no regulations for maintaining intellectual property rights, so Chinese companies pirate Western technology and products with impunity, and undersell the foreign firms that have invested in them. Also, Thurow believes tales of China’s phenomenal growth are often just that – fictions sold by bureaucrats to rate a promotion. “China is a great success but it’s not growing at 9 to 10% a year.” Finally, divisions between prosperous cities and stagnant rural areas threaten long-term stability in the People’s Republic. ABOUT THE SPEAKER: Lester Thurow has advised presidents and informed the American public on such critical issues as deficit reduction and unemployment for more than 30 years. He has been an economics columnist for many national and international publications including The New York Times, The Boston Globe, From mitworld.mit.edu/video/220/ 1 24 November 2005 Newsweek, and Nikkei Business Japan, and published numerous best-selling books, of which Fortune Favors the Bold (HarperBusiness, 2003) is the latest.

The Center of the Universe 4. Currency Crises 5. Turbulence and Chaos 6. The Political Economy of Globalization 7. Unsettled Foundations 8. Rethinking Globalization Bibliography * Michael Veseth is professor of economics and director of the Political Economy Program at the University of Puget Sound. His numerous books include Mountains of Debt; Introductory Economics; Public Finance; and most recently, Introduction to International Political Economy (coauthored with David Balaam). Preface This book began as a project to explore the application of chaos theory—the analysis of nonlinear dynamical processes—to international political economy, especially to the study of international financial movements. For a variety of reasons, I thought that international capital flows might be an especially interesting area to hunt for nonlinear dynamics. This hunch was correct. In fact, exchange rates and international capital flows display elements of both crisis and chaos, which are analyzed, illustrated, and discussed in the critical central chapters of this book. Once the case for chaos in international finance was established, the question I faced was, “so what?” One answer was globalization. Many people tell the story that global financial markets are the driving force behind the globalization of production, consumption, culture, politics, and more. The existence of crisis and chaos, however, makes truly global finance impossible, as a close study of the data indicates. This drew me into the globalization literature, which I found in need of a critical analysis.

    "Arise ye prisoners of taxation”, the work of the imagination in the media writings of economists Tiago Mata Department of Science and Technology Studies University College London 22 Gower Street, London, WC1E 6BT United Kingdom Email: [email protected] Acknowledgments: I thank Claire Lemercier for introducing me to text analysis and setting me on the course of writing this essay. Andrea Salter provided invaluable assistance in preparation of the corpus. Versions of this paper were presented to the Public Understanding of Science Seminar in London, History of Economics as History of Culture workshop at University of Paris-Cergy, and at the annual meetings of the European Society for the History of Economic Thought, I thank the participants at those events for their helpful suggestions. I am specially thankful to Harro Maas, Roger Backhouse and Beatrice Cherrier for their detailed comments and suggestions. Funding The research was funded by the European Research Council under the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013) for a project entitled “Economics in the Public Sphere,” grant agreement n. 283754. Abstract Since the 1960s a small number of academic economists has enjoyed celebrity status in the US media. Paul Samuelson and Milton Friedman were exemplar specimens of the kind. From 1966 to 1984 they were columnists at Newsweek. Samuelson and Friedman became newsworthy by forecasting the outcomes of competing policy programs and imagining a horizon of prosperity. Faced by the social upheavals and the stagflation of the 1970s their writing turned from prediction and advice to indictments of government failure. During the tax revolts Tiago Mata 1 of 1976-78 Friedman claimed membership to an imagined community of taxpayers reclaiming their wealth from the state.

Jimmy Carter’s response to stagflation, the unprecedented combination of stagnation and double-digit inflation that afflicted the American economy during his presidency, made him the subject of virulent attack from liberal Democrats for betraying New Deal traditions of activist government to sustain high employment and strong economic growth. Carter found himself accused of being a do-nothing president whose name had become ‘a synonym for economic mismanagement’ like Herbert Hoover’s in the 1930s.1 Liberal disenchantment fuelled Edward Kennedy’s quixotic crusade to wrest the 1980 Democratic presi- dential nomination from Carter.

  • Paul Krugman Ricardo's Difficult Idea
    Text No. 6 International Economic Law Prof. Dr. Christine Kaufmann Paul Krugman Ricardo’s difficult idea Paper for Manchester conference on free trade, March 1996 The title of this paper is a play on that of an admirable recent book by the philosopher Daniel Dennett, Darwin's Dangerous Idea: Evolution and the Meanings of Life (1995). Dennett's book is an examination of the reasons why so many intellectuals remain hostile to the idea of evolution through natural selection ‐‐ an idea that seems simple and compelling to those who understand it, but about which intelligent people somehow manage to get confused time and time again. The idea of comparative advantage ‐‐ with its implication that trade between two nations normally raises the real incomes of both ‐‐ is, like evolution via natural selection, a concept that seems simple and compelling to those who understand it. Yet anyone who becomes involved in discussions of international trade beyond the narrow circle of academic economists quickly realizes that it must be, in some sense, a very difficult concept indeed. I am not talking here about the problem of communicating the case for free trade to crudely anti‐intellectual opponents, people who simply dislike the idea of ideas. The persistence of that sort of opposition, like the persistence of creationism, is a different sort of question, and requires a different sort of discussion. What I am concerned with here are the views of intellectuals, people who do value ideas, but somehow find this particular idea impossible to grasp. My objective in this essay is to try to explain why intellectuals who are interested in economic issues so consistently balk at the concept of comparative advantage.
