China's Economic Growth Due to Recent Foreign Policies
Recent Chinese economic policies have shot the country into the world economy at full speed. As testimony of this, China's gross domestic product has risen to seventh in the world, and its economy is growing at over nine percent per year (econ-gen 1). Starting in 1979, the Chinese have implemented numerous economic and political tactics to open the Chinese marketplace to the rest of the world. Just a few areas China's government is addressing are agricultural technology, the medical market, and infrastructures, like telecommunications, transportation and the construction industry. Chinese reform measures even anticipated the rush of foreign investment by opening newly

Even after accounting for all the economic benefits recognized by the world, the Chinese still come out as the country with the most gains. However, there are more motives behind China's market reforms than just purely economic.
On the political front, China is fast becoming an integral part of international organizations. The Chinese government is making a conscious effort to reenter
GATT (the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade), realizing the importance of creating a favorable trading status among foreign nations. Slowing this progress, the 124 nation strong trade bloc has requested that numerous conditions must be met by China before the nation can become a member of GATT once again. Several of these provisions are the "elimination of import prohibitions, restrictive licensing requirements and other controls or restrictions; lifting of all restrictions on access to foreign exchange and full convertibility of the Chinese currency" (china-tr. 2). Other important key themes behind China's Open-Door policies are "economic and technological cooperation with the West" (china-tr 1) and that China's government no longer supports Third World revolution. Instead, China realizes that cooperation with developing countries would be far more practical. Although Chinese foreign policy is aimed at opening the nation's entire economy to the world, it neglects the agricultural market almost entirely, with the exception

Guilt is a challenge that many people have dealt with in life, but different types of guilt have different consequences. The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne illustrated for the reader the differences between guilt that has been expressed and guilt that has been concealed within. Both types are displayed between two different characters. Hester displays expressed guilt because she has confessed to her part in adultery. Dimmesdale, on the contrary displays concealed guilt due to his refusal to confess in his part in the sin.
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

Discuss the impact of globalisation on China, with reference to economic development and environmental consequences
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.
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.
For the past century, Chinese society has felt a compulsive desire to develop at breakneck speeds. In pursuing development, China’s primary goal has been to display its sophistication to the world, rather than to directly aid the welfare of its citizens. Following this hierarchy of objectives, China has continued to relentlessly modernize despite enormous negative consequences; the development powered through famine during the Great Leap Forward, violence during the Cultural Revolution, and economic dislocation during liberalization, accepting negative consequences as bearable burdens on the path to global renown. Ignoring these issues, China has proven itself more responsive to international views of modernity than to immediate national

The economic growth rate of China rate grew by 1.8 percent following the measure of economic growth which is the GDP growth rate. The GDP growth rate is one of the adequate economic growth measures. It indicates that the rate expanded 1.8 percent in the second quarter of 2016 increasing from the previous quarter of 1.2 percent growth. It also surpassed the market projections of 1.6 percent expansion (Levchenko & Zhang, 2016). It was the strongest economic growth
China’s exceptional economic growth could barely be suppressed in China’s borders. Although China was both a giver as well as a receiver of economical communication throughout Eurasia. One of China’s many effects of their economic transformation lay in the dispersal of its tegnological advancements to people and places as the migration of soldiers, merchants, traders, slaves, and pilgrams, carried their accomplishments internationally. China’s unique way of manufacturing salt by solar evaporation spread to Christian Europe as well as the Islamic world. Papermaking, which started during the Han Dynasty, spread to Vietnam and Korea by the 4th century, Japan and India in the 7th, etc. Both printing as well as papermaking were both heavily affected

China’s sudden growth and rise to an economic superpower has affected the worldwide economy, the worldwide environment, and its own private industry in ways that may have longstanding effects for the future.
My issue of the background is that one opinion of the story the Execution. Is that the author states he doesn’t agree with Ted Bundy execution along with he doesn’t agree with the death penalty. He quote the (The death penalty and I…have nothing in common) nor does he agrees with such laws of capital punishment. His overall purpose was to inform that he does not agree with execution of Ted Bundy. He sees capital punishment an immoral as quoted (I think the killing of one human makes no sense and is inherently immoral). The author opinion is agreeable with mine.
