Abstract:
|
The news hour's economics correspondent Paul Solman examines the rise of China as a global economic power, and the challenges that lie before it. Includes the Westernization of the economy, including Wal-Mart. Looks at the lingering influence of Mao Zedong. Discusses the failing Shanghai Stock Exchange. Talks with Cheng Siwei, vice chairman of the Chinese Communist party and China's "father of venture capital," about economic relations with the U.S., foreign investment, textile exports, and the revaluation of the yuan. Investigates piracy of foreign intellectual property rights in China, using Viagra as an example. Questions whether China's economy can continue to grow at the current pace without major political reform.
