THE CHINESE MODEL:\u00a0<\/a><\/strong>Why China Used to Lag Behind the West, but Is Now Ove<\/strong>rtaking It.\u00a0Fortis Press<\/em>, 2025.<\/a><\/h4>\n

This is a book about modern China, mainly about the economy (about half the text), but also about culture, history, religion, and politics. There are three main issues discussed in the book:<\/p>\n

1. Why did China (and earlier other countries and territories of East Asia, largely based on the Chinese model \u2014 Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Southeast Asian countries) in the 18\u201319 centuries started to lag behind not only the West, but even many developing countries (Russian Empire, Latin America)?
\n2. Why since the middle of the 20th century have these countries and territories became the only major region that started to close the gap in economic development levels with the West?
\n3.Is the Chinese economic and social model (based on \u201cAsian values\u201d, the primacy of public over private interests) more competitive than the liberal Western model and how will their competition end?<\/p>\n

It is generally believed that the economic success of the West during and after the transition to capitalism is associated with the expansion of human rights (the abolition of slavery and serfdom, guarantees of property rights and contracts). In contrast, this book argues that the rise of the West has less to do with securing individual freedoms and more to do with rising rates of saving and investment as a result of the destruction of the agricultural community and associated rise in the inequality in income distribution. The expansion of human rights became later a consequence of economic success, a kind of luxury that successful and competitive countries could afford. Today, however, the liberal Western model is experiencing increasing difficulties.<\/p>\n
