Examination Two
Essay One
HIS 1010-5 WB: World Problems

China has redeveloped itself from past years to a point where they produce a large amount of goods needed by other countries. This new position is forcing other countries and the U.S. to adapt to China and tread carefully with China while China takes awkward stances on different areas affecting their own people and the world as a whole. China’s growth produces change and change allows for new learning. As long as China can follow the commitments it has set forth to the world and domestically, then the world can look at how China can help with world trade and economics and deal with the major responsibilities such commitments bring. Currently in the news was how China helped search for the missing Malaysia plane. Of great significance is how organizations the world over tried to help which was great timing for a horrific tragedy. As we accept China the people will too be witness to democracy. Without consent of their own people China’s government can’t prevail. If people see and feel the effects of democracy then there is a better chance for global peace. This, combined with a China that believes in multilateralism so that no one, including the U.S., is left in a vulnerable position seems to be our best hope. Looking back, China was going through a leadership change. To secure the vote of the people China had to make sure its people believed in its country and did not need any third party interests interfering and causing social unrest. There are many speculations as to why China has reacted to some incidences they way it did. While reactions are studied it is still important to understand if China is resolved to world peace and posterity as it as so often referred to.

...ue to our consumptions of oil and use of cars, environmental issues, creditors and populations. This relationship needs to be handled correctly now so as not to tilt the scales towards adverse consequences in the future. The U.S. and other nations need to keep policies in tact that enforce mutual respect and interests. The U.S. has to keep a watchful so as not to let China alienate us from the Asian markets and policies with other nations need to respect that. They already know how the U.S. handles its country but no one can be sure how China will be if it supersedes the U.S. as the dominant global power. Any policy should keep in mind that China and the U.S. together can have a great positive effect on the world economy. The two have worked together in the past and both know the consequences of not having each other as mutual partners.

    ...ities as a responsible state holder. One of the consequences of the international community questioning China’s military capabilities is that the international community could potentially induce an unproductive arms race with China. If China is to participate in the race, China will have a weakened competitive position in the races of economic and intellectual strength. Secondly, China will lose the ability to use its army as a form of soft power therefore making it harder to believe that China can be a responsible state holder since it will seem like propaganda. In terms of China, the world is in a very exciting position with the promotion of the China’s model an alternative governing system is being offered. However, we need to remain vigilant and aware for just as quickly as China rose, it has the potential to fall as well if it doesn’t play it’s cards right.

  • Analysis Of The Us-China Trade

    1570 Words  | 4 Pages

    The United States and China share the most imbalanced bilateral trade relationship in the world. The United States imports more goods from China than it exports to a tune of $202 billion dollars each year. All told, China alone accounts for nearly 26% of the United States' $725.8 billion trade deficit. “Increasingly, this imbalance has been the subject of a major political backlash within the U.S. congress, where some have charged that the US is destroying its industrial base to support a communist country's industrialization." http://worldnews.about.com/od/china/a/china_trade.htm

    China is an economic power and the U.S. behaves with china because of security reason and China has the biggest U.S debt. If China decides to call it in it will have a huge impact in the U.S. economy and it will destroy its own economy as well. China is the second largest importer and exporter of the U.S. trade deals. The U.S sees china as a security concern because it has become very powerful and its economy is really big which can start investing in its military and increase threat and destabilize region and to U.S. allies such as Japan and South Korea. Furthermore, U.S sees china as a security because it has invested a lot in Africa because of its continental natural resources, and around 2007 the Congolese Government announced that China would bullied and refurbish rail ways, roads and mines in Congo at about $12 billion and china would benefit by mining copper ore and shows that it is dedicated to investing no matter how big the price tag would be in war torn countries.

    China today – powerful and ever-growing – wasn’t always like this. One major event in history around the mid 1800s that we all seem to have forgotten was the Opium Wars. What really caused the opium war was when China wanted to halt all trade in opium with the British. The geography of China is something like a fence. This isolation made the people of China feel like their country was prestigious and secluded from the rest of the world.

  • The Relationship between the US and China

    1491 Words  | 3 Pages

    The American principle of democracy promotion and human rights protection minimized the Sino- American relations after the Tiananmen Square events in 1989, the US Presidents-George Bush and Bill Clinton- playing a key role in determining the further American foreign policy towards China. In order to have a better understanding about the conflict of Tiananmen and its influence on further American relations with the People’s Republic of China, this paper gives a short background of the bilateral relations until 1990. Historically, the United States and China did not have good relations due to the political regime of China. In addition, China was not developed economically to have trade or any kind of relations with the US. According to some historical data, the first China-US negotiations at the ambassadorial level started on August 1, 1955.

  • Democracy in China

    3306 Words  | 7 Pages

    The topic of democracy in China is a highly controversial topic. Although China has not democratised, it has done well in the global situation amongst its democratic competitors. Since the path to democracy is different for each country, we cannot expect that China would follow the same path or same model of democracy as the western nations. This essay will look at what democracy is and how it can be placed in a Chinese context as well as looking at the proponents and opponents of democracy in China. It will also look at whether China is democratising by focusing on village elections, globalisation and the emergence of a civil society. These specific topics were chosen because they will help provide good evidence and arguments to the topic of democratisation in China. The main argument in this essay will be that although China is implementing some changes that can be seen as the beginning of a road to democracy, there contribution should not be over estimated. China still has a long way to go before it can be considered that it is democratising. The small changes are good but China still has a long road ahead of itself to achieve democracy.

    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.

  • China's Foreign Policy

    China's Foreign Policy Since the initial warming of U.S.-China relations in the early 1970’s, policymakers have had difficulty balancing conflicting U.S. policy concerns in the People’s Republic of China. In the strange world of diplomacy between the two, nothing is predictable. From Nixon to Clinton, presidents have had to reconcile security and human rights concerns with the corporate desire for expanded economic relations between the two countries. Nixon established ties with Mao Zedong’s brutal regime in 1972. And today, Clinton’s administration is trying to influence China’s course from within a close economic and diplomatic relationship.

  • The Threat of China

    784 Words  | 2 Pages

    In the race to be the best, China is clearly outperforming the United States. China has strong economic fundamentals¬ such as “a high savings rate, huge labor pool, and powerful work ethic” (Rachman, Gideon. "Think Again: American Decline). Their economy has grown an astonishing 9-10% over the past thirty years; almost double of what it used to be decades ago. China is also the “world’s greatest manufacturer and its greatest market” (Rachman). The continuing growth of China's economy is a source of concern for not only the U.S. but surrounding nations as well. One could argue that the U.S. need not worry about China’s growth because of the spread of globalization and that western ideologies would influence China to turn to democracy. Yet China has still managed to “incorporate censorship and one party rule with continuing economic success” (Rachman) and remains a communist country. Hypothetically, even if China does resort to a democratic state, this does not gua...
