Praise for What the U.S. Can Learn from China "Ann Lee shows us how the United States can also learn much from the country that will soon have the world's largest economy. Professor Lee foresaw the 'Great Recession' two years before it happened; we should all listen to her now as she describes how China and the United States can work together to shape a safer and more prosperous world." -Charlie Kolb, President, Committee for Economic Development, and former Deputy Undersecretary, U.S. Department of Education "The author makes sensible points about all the topics covered and has interesting points of view about so many issues. A wide-sweeping book that makes engaging reading." -William Lewis, Founding Director, McKinsey Global Institute "A refreshing departure from the unilateral perspective hobbling geopolitical debate. Even those who see major flaws in China's system will find themselves agreeing with many of Ann Lee's provocative prescriptions." -Joseph Menn, U.S. correspondent, Financial Times, and author of Fatal System Error "Ann Lee takes issue with those who see China's rise only as a threat to America and not also as an opportunity. By looking at some of the root policies and attitudes behind China's recent success, she shows how lessons from China can bring Americans full circle, back to the values and aspirations that made the United States a great country in the first place. Her book adds much-needed nuance to the debates over China's role in the global economy and as a rising world power." -Michele Wucker, President, World Policy Institute "Misconceptions abound about China and how it works today. Ann Lee's book takes a fresh and controversial look at the Chinese system and its strengths." -Josh Lerner, Jacob H. Schiff Professor of Investment Banking, Harvard Business School

Synopsis
While America is still reeling from the 2008 financial crisis, a high unemployment rate, and a surge in government debt, China's economy is the second largest in the world, and many predict it will surpass the United States' by 2020. President Obama called China's rise "a Sputnik moment"--will America seize this moment or continue to treat China as its scapegoat? Mainstream media and the U.S. government regularly target China as a threat. Rather than viewing China's power, influence, and contributions to the global economy in a negative light, Ann Lee asks, What can America learn from its competition? Why did China recover so quickly after the global economic meltdown? What accounts for China's extraordinary growth, despite one of the highest corporate tax rates in the world? How does the Chinese political system avoid partisan rancor but achieve genuine public accountability? From education to governance to foreign aid, Lee details the policies and practices that have made China a global power and then isolates the ways the United States can use China's enduring principles to foster much-needed change at home. This is no whitewash. Lee is fully aware of China's shortcomings, particularly in the area of human rights. She has relatives who suffered during the Cultural Revolution. But by overemphasizing our differences with China, the United States stands to miss a vital opportunity. Filled with sharp insights and thorough research, What the U.S. Can Learn from China is Lee's rallying cry for a new approach at a time when learning from one another is the key to surviving and thriving. Winner of the Gold IPPY award in the category of current events., The author examines what China can teach the U.S. in education, economic policy, foreign policy, strategic planning, and politics. While America reeled from the 2008 financial crisis, a high unemployment rate, and a surge in government debt, China's economy was the second largest in the world, and many predict it will surpass the United States'.

"Ann Lee's What the U.S. Can Learn from China is a rare achievement in today's examinations of U.S.-China relations: it supplements an already sophisticated analysis with a deep cultural understanding that is richly valuable and laudably objective. Ann's ability to ask the tough questions helps Americans to understand China better and China to see itself clearer." --Nancy Yao Maasbach, executive director, Yale-China Association "This book sparkles on literally every page with surprising insights and crucial information that everybody in America--and China--simply must become acquainted with or be reminded of. Whether it be about education, culture, politics and economics, or business, Ms. Lee has much, much more to teach both Americans and Chinese than any of us knew that we had yet to learn." --Robert Hockett, Professor of Financial and International Economic Law, Cornell University, While America is still reeling from the 2008 financial crisis, a high unemployment rate, and a surge in government debt, China's economy is the second largest in the world, and many predict it will surpass the United States' by 2020.

Filled with sharp insights and thorough research, What the U.S. Can Learn from China is Lee's rallying cry for a new approach at a time when learning from one another is the key to surviving and thriving., China succeeded Japan as the world's second largest economy in 2010 many predict it will grow to be larger than the United States by 2020. Three decades ago, China was a rural economy with barely any exports. The rise of China presents the United States with a "Sputnik Moment," in the words of President Obama. Will we rise to the challenge as we did during the space race, or will we rationalize and scapegoat our way to explaining why we can't compete? Ann Lee provides an unvarnished assessment of China's political economy and governance structure, analyzing the sources of China's success and identifying lessons that can be applied by other governments regardless of ideology. As a Chinese-American who emigrated to the U.S. from Hong Kong at the age of seven, Lee is uniquely situated to help Americans understand how China sees its own society and how to adapt some Chinese practices to benefit the U. S. For example, the Chinese economy is designed to make the kind of unproductive and unrestrained financial speculation that has devastated much of the West impossible. Aspiring Chinese politicians have to pass tests to prove their competency to govern. The Chinese homicide rate is a fifth of what it is in the U.S. While not blind to China's shortcomings, Lee argues that rather than demonizing China, a more productive use of time and resources is to learn from this rising power in order to maximize the talent of millions of people., While America is still reeling from the 2008 financial crisis, a high unemployment rate, and a surge in government debt, China's economy is the second largest in the world, and many predict it will surpass the United States' by 2020.

- c***r (558)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufMost importantly, the book condition was as specified. Many thanks for that. Also, the book was delivered promptly from the USA to the UK. Also, the price was reasonable for an out-of-print book. However, one point of constructive criticism: the packaging could have been much better, in order to better protect the book in transit. The book was sent in a bubble-wrap mailer only, with no cardboard to give the package greater strength. Thank you very much for any consideration of my feedback.
- 3***6 (128)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe mail service absolutely ravaged the top binding corner of the book, which really was a disappointment. It’s not your fault as a seller, but please consider that a book in a snug envelope is very unsafe rather than a slightly larger envelope of the same strength. It’s not going to affect your rating. I will say nothing. But please consider this in the future- Post is treated poorly and customer service is poor with mail, so it’s necessary to ship properly, especially if you sell books. :)Pistis Sophia: The Gnostic Tradition of Mary Magdalene, Jesus, and His Disciples (Nr. 116542842875)
