Upon interacting with the <\/p>\n<p>West, China declined from the drug trade, military defeat and decentralization <\/p>\n<p>of the nation into \u201cspheres of influence,\u201d a resulting fall of the Empire and foreign invasion by Japan, with several peasant rebellions, two world wars, and a long <\/p>\n<p>and hard civil war ending in the victory by the Chinese Communist Party in 1949.  <\/p>\n<p>The Communists then drove what little was left of the economy into the ground.  <\/p>\n<p>By 1978, China was in terrible shape.  Under Deng Xiao Ping, China reorganized <\/p>\n<p>the economy into large free-standing state enterprises operating in a market <\/p>\n<p>environment.  China opened up the country to trade and foreign investment, <\/p>\n<p>which flowed in chasing after very cheap labor.  The resulting economic boom <\/p>\n<p>is unstoppable because the Chinese people have suffered terrible economic <\/p>\n<p>conditions for over 300 years and are now grateful for peace and trivial wages.<\/p>\n<p>Thomas J. Stevens<\/p>\n<p>ECON 4, Micro<\/p>\n<p>MW 4 pm<\/p>\n<p>Feb. 24, 2012<\/p>\n<p>Historical Origins of China\u2019s Economic Advantage<\/p>\n<p>I.  Introduction<\/p>\n<p>China is commonly thought to be an economic miracle that has an unlimited future.1    The success of China\u2019s recent economic growth rate is unimpressive.  China pursued the worst possible economic policies for thirty years following their Communist Revolution.2  The preceding three hundred year decline was due to the impact of the West:  drug addiction, destruction of central authority, foreign invasion, world war and civil war.3  Consequently, their economy was driven to unimaginable lows.4  The recovery is simply a rebounding from depths they never should have been driven to.  However, the depths of these lows now insures that it will be the dominant economic power for the next century because of the simple truth that capital seeks out cheap labor.5  China\u2019s history insures that this competitive advantage will not soon be lost.<\/p>\n<p>II.  The Pattern of Classical China<\/p>\n<p>China is one of the great classical civilizations.  (See Table 1, Classical Civilizations.)   A review of its succession of dynasties demonstrates one great truism: nothing lasts forever.  (See Table 2, Chinese Dynasties.)  China has had only 40 dynasties in 4,000 years.6  Sometimes change comes from within.7  Sometimes, change comes from without.8<\/p>\n<p>There is a general pattern to Chinese history.9  A lean, mean and hungry challenger overthrows a corrupt and weak government which is unpopular and a menace to the people.10  The challenger takes over.11  The bureaucracy readily changes allegiance to the new masters and survives the transition.12  The new government quickly becomes as refined, decadent, and <\/p>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<p>reduced by 80% from the exchange rate.112  The answer to the question is, the Americans aren\u2019t going to compete with the Chinese.<\/p>\n<p>The Chinese are going to wipe out all American manufacturing, and all of the maquiladoras in Mexico, too.113  The Chinese will build television sets, washing machines, and automobiles.  Very soon, nothing will be manufactured in North America, Europe, Korea, Taiwan or Japan.  And when nothing is manufactured in any of those places, the prices will go up.  But never enough for long enough to revive domestic manufacturing.<\/p>\n<p>IX.  Conclusion<\/p>\n<p>The Chinese have been the dominant civilization on this planet for 95% of the last 4,000 years.114  They stumbled recently, but they are back, and they are back on top.  They have 1 billion people.115  Their currency-adjusted economy is over $20 trillion.116  They have a nuclear arsenal with over 400 bombs and have indicted no hesitancy in using those weapons against us.117  The Chinese have a space program.118  The armed forces of China exceed 2.3 million soldiers.119  They are number one and getting more powerful every day.  The U.S. in number three and getting weaker every day.  In twenty years, if the Russians and the Indians do their job, the United States will be number five, the present international equivalent of France.  All empires decline.  The United States has plummeted.  <\/p>\n<p>14<\/p>\n<p>Table 1<\/p>\n<p>Classical Civilizations<\/p>\n<p>OriginCivilization<\/p>\n<p>2900 B.C.Egypt<\/p>\n<p>2600 B.C.Mesopotamia (Iraq)<\/p>\n<p>2600 B.C.Maya  (Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, Honduras, El Salvador)<\/p>\n<p>2500 B.C.India<\/p>\n<p>2370 B.C.Sumeria (Iraq)<\/p>\n<p>2200 B.C.
