Podcast: China's great economic slowdown

Transcript

Listen: China is undoubtedly the biggest economic success story of our lifetime.

Between 1978 and 2017, China averaged almost 10% year-over-year GDP growth. Decades of pro-investment policies transformed China from a closed, centrally-planned economy to an economic powerhouse that could rival the US.

Xi’s vision is one of almost total state control, where businesses conform to the goals of the Chinese Communist Party, not the other way around.

Can communist ideology mixed with capitalist ambition sustain growth into the future? Is Xi setting up China for another four decades of economic success? And what do China’s citizens make of its return to socialist roots?

To discuss all that and more on the GZERO World podcast, Ian Bremmer sits down with Shaun Rein, Founder and Managing Director of the China Market Research Group, based in Shanghai.
