China and India play a crucial role in the world economy, molding and shaping the global markets, despite the differences in the methods of attaining such global prominence. These differences may appear to set the two countries apart completely, but China and India share a number of similarities. Despite having semblable population curves and similar domestic issues, India has been unable to match China’s economic success because of its limited production and distribution capabilities, but its steady investment in its economy appears to give India the advantage for being a superpower in the future.
Both nations possess comparable features. Both are rapidly expanding, constituting the most populous regions of the world, and face poverty, a growing rural-urban divide, corruption, expansive bureaucracies, and illiteracy. They also have a seemingly limitless economic potential and “are developing rapidly in certain sectors and represent the largest of the emerging markets,” as stated in the International Journal of E-Business Research (Raven 104). But the two nations differ in their method of garnering economic influence, with China attaining this economic growth much more quickly than India. China transitioned from a nation closed to trade to one that excelled in exporting, establishing their status in the world economy. The communist system, established after World War II, underwent reforms around 1978 to become more market based, pushing China into an advanced democracy and
China is the second largest economy in the world. It has become the fastest growing economy in the world with an average rate of 10% for the last thirty years. The largest exporter and second largest importer of goods has brought China to be ranked first in the foreign exchange reserves. The country with thousands of years of history, started off and continues today as mostly an agrarian economy. Over time China's economy continues to change and prosper. Starting with the first economic change in the early twentieth century, which occurred when the GMD (the Nationalist Party) lost control due to its poor economic performance. This in turn led to their defeat by the CCP. During that time many peasants lost their farmland and this led to a peasant
Since the reform and opening up, the economy of China grows significantly, as an emerging economy, China's economy has made tremendous contributions to the global economy, and Renminbi has become one of the most important currency in the world. According to the survey conducted by China National Bureau of Statistics found that from 1979 to 2012, China has attained an annual average growth rate of 9.8% for its national economy, while the annual average growth of the world economy is only 2.8 % during the same period. In past 30 years, China's GDP surpassed Japan’s, China became the world 's second largest economy, in addition, the huge total volume of trade makes China become the world 's largest trading nation. The contribution of China’s
Together China and India attributed to prosperity and there are mutual economic benefits. Both countries have formed stronger economic bonds. They have openly cooperated with one another in multi-lateral trade negotiations. As emerging economies continue to grow, there may be a further decline in the share of world output and world exports accounted for by the
The rise in China from a poor, stagnant country to a major economic power within a time span of twenty-eight years is often described by analysts as one of the greatest success stories in these present times. With China receiving an increase in the amount of trade business from many countries around the world, they may soon be a major competitor to surpass the U.S. China became the second largest economy, last year, overtaking Japan which had held that position since 1968 (Gallup). China could become the world’s largest economy in decades.
To capture the benefits of globalisation, the communist government has moved its focus from domestic to trade oriented. China has become the second largest economy in the world. Since 1980s, it has gone from being the 12th largest economy in the world to the second largest. This indicates that its economy has been growing with an average rate of 10 per cent per year for the last three
The two countries that we are going to compare are India and China. The greatest contrast among Indian China is the level of development in both nations. Advancement can be seeing more in India than in China and the struck me the most. There could be many variables causing this distinction. To begin with, let 's examine the differences in the government of meat country. Since the meaning of time, the Chinese government is continuing to do things their way heavily influencing what happens in the country. They have inumerous laws that directly or indirectly cause a standstill with innovation. The majority of the things our state possessed in China bus to begin something intends to first get every one of the clearances from the government, which is extremely troublesome. Conversely, Indian government advances development by
China has been moving to a market-based economy since 1978, and a relaxation of central control over certain aspects of the community has helped it become the largest developing economy and the second largest economy in the world when measured by Purchasing Power Parity.
Throughout time, many countries have needed to implement some sort of economic reform in order to strengthen their economy so that they can be more of a power on the world stage and to stabilize their country. The Chinese reforms were long in the making, an unfolding process that had spanned most of the 20th century and, unlike other countries such as Russia who were trying to do the same thing but whom eventually failed, China prospered, and increased its economy greatly. China has had the fastest growing economy in the world for the past two decades, with an annual growth rate of approximately 10 percent since the economic reforms in 1979, and now has the second largest GDP in the world, second only to the USA. Starting in 1979 they
Economically globalisation began in 1978 following Deng Xiaoping’s Open Door policy. This opened up China to foreign investment and the international markets. This lead to an influx of transnational corporations, which was advantageous to Chinese companies who benefitted from technology transfer. However, the TNC’s moved to China for its cheap labour and manufacture, which presented an ethical dilemma for China. Leaders had to decide whether to compromise on a lack of investment and poor
The rapid economic growth trends demonstrated by China and India are currently at the height of debate amongst world leaders and economists. According to “Dancing with Giants: China, India, and the Global Economy”, edited by L. Alan Winters and Shadid Yusuf (2007), these countries are very unique in that their economic patterns of growth continue to increase and sustain momentum over an extended period of time while dealing with growing populations. The fact that these countries have illustrated a sustained pattern of growth means that they are beginning to, or have already shifted the balance of power within the global community; however, many scientists believe that this trend has shown negative side effects within the social and political settings because inequalities within both regions continue to rise. In Dancing with Giants: China, India, and the Global Economy (2007) the author states that, “Chinese and Indian authorities face important challenges in keeping their investment climate favorable, their inequalities levels at intervals that do not undermine growth, and their air and water quality at acceptable levels” (8). In a discussion, I will deconstruct the effects of China and India’s economic growth on social inequalities.
We know that nothing in life comes for free, and for China and India the situation is the same, after a closer look at this two nations we can observe that they have chosen different paths in the race for the number one economic power, China and their communist regime appears to look like a Lego construction with a new factory or a new building appearing every day, with amazing infrastructure that impresses and shows the power from the first look, and India a democratic country with a disastrous infrastructure and many birocratic bumps. For China the alarming pace of evolution has created a big camp of people that don’t agree with the way China has chosen to expand, many people saw their houses torn apart in order to leave space for new factories, and even if they were compensated with a new home in the new apartment buildings created, the idea off seeing how their history is destroys has left them with a bitter taste. Also one of the biggest problems for China and India is the effect of waste disposal, most Chinese or Indian factories create a devastating effect on the environment, and yearly this nations encounter 1 million premature deaths attributed to pollution, 30 million people are projected to be infected with the HIV virus, 200.000 Chinese die from TB, also military tensions in both countries, or another
The economic reforms implemented by the government over the past two decades have allowed China to evolve from a centrally planned economy,
After Mao’s death in 1976, China was struggling finding a way to fix their economy from all the damage that had been done. In 1977 Deng Xiaoping became China’s economic leader, creating new policies and reform for China to get back up from the fall the experienced under the maoist regime. Deng Xiaoping wanted to successfully maintain political supremacy of the communist party while fundamentally transforming the economic system that had long been at the core of its ideology (Burton, 3). Deng took initiative and concentrated on correcting structural economic imbalances, opening international trade, and liberating nationalized enterprises and banks (Burton, 10). To what extent was China’s economic reform of 1976 to 1990 from a planned economy to a market economy beneficial to the country? Some Historians believe that the tactics used in reviving China’s economy were Capitalistic, contradicting China 's Communist government system. Was capitalism
China’s thirty year run of almost 10% GDP growth is legendary and there are many reasons for this phenomenal growth. The journey of a poor communist country of the 1950s to a world economic superpower today reads like a novel comprised of economic plots and sub-plots along the way.
BRICS is an emerging geopolitical acronym that has influenced the international system one way or another. BRICS stands for Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. They share a common political objective which is state sovereignty while increasing economic and social independence as well as interdependence. India is one of countries in the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) group which have been recognized for its phenomenal economic growth because of globalization and this has moved the country from being considered a poor nation to being a rising middle class country (Rao, 2004). India is a good example of a country that have benefitted from globalization in some respects. It sustained a high and accelerated growth rate over the past 25 years making it the fourth largest economy in the world next to China. The Indian economy has done very well in terms of the growth of the GDP “(about 6 per cent per year in the real terms in the 1990s, rising to more than 7 per cent in the last decade” (Jean, Dreze & Amartya Sen, 2013). To understand India’s development, it is necessary to understand its demography, its structure and characteristics. It is not only the largest democracy in the world, but it also the second largest country in the world because of its population (Raj, 2004, p.401). As of 2014, it has a population of about 1,236,344,631, it rose by 1.25 per cent over the last years (Europa World Online, 2015). In terms of natural
