For Beyond 50's "Finance" talks, listen to an interview with Tom Orlik. He spent eleven years in China as Chief Asia Economist for Bloomberg and as a journalist for the Wall Street Journal. Orlik uses a combination of on the ground insights and economic analysis to trace China’s history from Deng Xiaoping’s reform to Xi Jinping’s anti-corruption crackdown in order to provide a unique perspective on the country’s past, present, and probable futures. Most notably, China illuminates possible sources for the country’s resilience, such as its combination of high savings, activist industrial policy, and ample development space, and maps out alternate scenarios for China’s rise, its fall and what that would mean for the rest of the world. Conventional wisdom says China is at a breaking point, but somehow their collapse never seems to become a reality. Growth continues, wealth rises, and influence expands. Why is this? Orlik helps answer that question. Tune in to Beyond 50: America's Variety Talk Radio Show on the natural, holistic, green and sustainable lifestyle.
