Weet China de iinkomensval te vermijden? Dat is de vraag in deze podcast van EU denktank Bruegel over de economische ontwikkeling van het land.

The middle to high-income trap in East Asia and its China dilemma.

The middle-income trap describes a situation in which a country, having attained a certain income level, gets stuck there (due to given advantages). The high-income trap is of a similar nature, because although the positioning of these economies might be more advantageous to begin with, they find it difficult to promote innovation in manufacturing or upgrade to higher value-added services to remain competitive and provide benefits to a wider spectrum of society.

In this episode of The Sound of Economics, Giuseppe Porcaro and Alicia García-Herrero are joined by Syaru Shirley Lin, Compton Visiting Professor in World Politics at the Miller Center of Public Affairs at the University of Virginia. They discuss the middle/high-income trap in East Asia, and especially in China. Is the high-income trap different between East Asia and Western Europe, especially in terms of their economic relationship with China? How has COVID-19 changed the economic landscape?

    Deze superieure ‘denk-tank’ van dat “EU”-konstrukt, is er nog niet achter,
    dat kommunistisch China een diktatuur is met een volledige plan-economie.
    Daar zijn al deze grappen, niet van toepassing.

    Het is weer eens wereld-vreemd en nutteloos gezever van deze ‘denk-tank’.

    Intussen is expansionistisch China ook MILITAIR : wereld-macht no. 1.
