The Intersection of China's Century Old Political Aims with the Modern Economy

Throughout recent decades, China has become known as a powerful economic giant. In order for the rest of the world to understand their quick transition into an economic powerhouse, it’s vital to acknowledge China’s century old political aims. Their rapid growth and success stems from past values intersecting with the modern economy. As a result, China cannot be effectively analyzed until their rich history is examined. Their economic success can be labeled neither “good” nor “bad” for the rest of the world, but there is no doubt that it will bring change. This thesis outlines the research methods, findings, and predictions surrounding China’s current success and how this will shape the global economy in coming years.
