"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
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.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. 1. While America is still reeling from the 2008 financial crisis, a high unemployment rate, and a surge in government debt, Chinas economy is the second largest in the world, and many predict it will surpass the United States by 2020. President Obama called Chinas 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 Chinas 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 Chinas 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 Chinas enduring principles to foster much-needed change at home.This is no whitewash. Lee is fully aware of Chinas 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 Lees rallying cry for a new approach at a time when learning from one another is the key to surviving and thriving.
