China has been improving its economy from last few years.It is only due to its efforts to overcome USA

The Chinese president is looking to boost consumption and import as part of efforts to restructure its economy (Hu Looks to Boost China's Consumption, Imports, (April 15, 2011). The Chinese energy consumption has been predicted to soar to 68% higher than that of the USA by the year 2035(China, India to lead energy consumption, (September 20, 2011). Investment spending is also set to increase from $12,633 billion (2011, 48% of GDP) to $29,628 billion by 2030 (38% of GDP) (CHINA - Gross fixed investment (% of GDP) from 2011 to 2030, EIU Country Data). In 2006 China had a rating of 5.00 and was seen ranked at 101st in terms of the degree of economic freedom as measured

Ethics must be global, not local. In order to build a truly great global business the leaders need to bring forward a global standard of ethical practices.

China's record of human rights violations is long and mind-boggling. Atrocities such as purging tens of millions of people during the Cultural Revolution, its infamous one-child-per-couple Population Policy, persistent oppression of Tibet and the bloody June 4 massacre at Tienanmen Square in 1989 have given the Chinese government a reputation of having little respect for human life. And yet, despite its tarnished record, China maintains its Most Favoured Nation trade status with the US and is one of Canada's top ten recipients of bilateral trade. As supposed supporters of human rights, Canadian and US governments have developed hypocritical attitudes toward China, compromising ethical values for material gain. Instead, North American

Ethics in a global concept is difficult to pinpoint because each country has its own culture. This culture can affect the government and the citizens, which in turn, affects the way businesses are managed. However, this can become a problem when companies become international. On the other hand, there are global common values that many countries possess that can help fair commerce across countries. These shared values come from the fact that many of the world’s religions share the same values. Therefore, “relative prosperity of developed economies seems implicitly to be taken as evidence of a sustainable form of free market capitalism that is supposed to be a universal economic destination” (Michaelson, 2010, p. 239). However, when a country does not share these values, or has a leader that does not it can become a major problem for

Over the past half-century, a number of controversial topics have come pouring out of China, spurring many unsettled ethical debates. Such topics range from environmental impact to the one-child policy, or the treatment of animals to the treatment of athletes and prisoners. However, one case in particular stands out as especially unethical and immoral; that being, the persecution, torture, capital punishment, and organ harvesting of Falun Gong practitioners.

China is known(recognized) (known for having) as one of the oldest civilizations in the world. One of the oldest known civilizations in China is the Xia Dynasty which began in 2070 B.C.E. Overtime civilizations adapt with the surrounding world, but China has always been a very independent nation. One of the most controversial topics that is discussed worldwide being Human Rights, China has been known(notorious for) to disregarding them, even though there are International Human Rights Laws. The Chinese government has developed a system of internal laws regarding human rights, but don’t enforce them on their own citizens. As a result of this, the people of China don’t mind. It is an important part of Chinese culture to be very Patriotic and do what is better for the country and not better for one self. In many other cultures, only a small percentage of the citizens actually want to be patriotic and do what is better for the country, for example, fight in a war. China is a developing country lacking much Human Rights Influence.

In a similar voice as Martin Luther King Jr., Pope Francis stated, “This is important: to get to know people, listen, expand the circle of ideas. The world is crisscrossed by roads that come closer together and move apart, but the important thing is that they lead towards the Good.” 5,953 miles away, I found the “Good” at Dandelion School in Beijing, China. Through my high school, Archbishop Mitty, I was given the opportunity to take the class “Ethics Culture Justice: China”. And thus I learned how unaware I was of basic real-world facts and controversial issues regarding the United States and China. During my times at a desk, seeing the demographics for the amount of poverty in the world disheartened me, but it didn’t truly stick with me.

China is a country that has been viewed in millions of different ways for centuries. So many in fact, that’s its become practically impossible to distinguish between what is a misconception and what is the truth. I have come to my own opinion that there is only one true face of China and that is that they are incredibly perseverant and hard working people above anything else. There are many examples throughout Chinese-American literature and in present day films and documentaries of the perseverance and determination of the Chinese.

laws are changing more rapidly now that China is seeing foreign companies show up. China is

The number one priority in regards to China should be their pollution level. Even though they are on the other side of the world, we are greatly affected by their disregard for the environment. The United States is also given a bad reputation when we deal with a country that has no regard for the environment. In order to remain popular in the eyes of the public, we need to exaggerate that we are doing everything we can to convince China to implement better environmental standards. Because according to our top expert

In a globalized market, where profits can be maximized, lenient regulations are expected, and with environmental oversight, global managers are often faced with making ethical decisions. According to Satterlee (2014), “Ethically speaking, one of the most important issues global business professionals may face is that of being socially responsible in the cultures in which they choose to do business” (p. 52). In Chile, with an open-market and being ranked 22 out of 177 on corruption, ethically conducting business is important to the business professionals: to continue to grow a thriving diverse economy and to reduce poverty levels and to enrich the lives of the people (Albuja & Merino, 2017). It is noteworthy to mention that corruption in

When considering ethical issues, we have to consider things in a global prospective, because what may be perfectly right for one nation may be looked in a different way from a different

From what I have seen, “the world is becoming smaller”(Diana 2001) differences between the U.S. and China are becoming less because of the Internet. From one of my friends who is still studying in China, the environment of education didn’t change a lot from the pass four years. He is still suffering through the high school graduation test, which is the most important test for every student in China. He said to me that comparing to him I’m living in heaven and he is living in hell. The culture and value has changed a lot. For example, “fast food culture, self center, money talks, and lost of the idea of family. However the credit system, independence, and law system in China are not as perfect as the U.S.”(Jian 2006) “China are not only growing very fast in economy but also losing the culture in the same speed.”(Jiyang 2003)

The Chinese are an emerging economy that has taken over the world's production in recent years. In fact China is now considered to be the world's factory, as all the major players in the world outsource all or some of their manufacturing activities to the country. All this would not have been possible without the help of technology and with the state of globalization being such, that logistics and distances are becoming shorter and shorter.
