	Description:		On August 1 Mattel recalled approximately 1.5 million toys made by a manufacturer in China because of dangerous levels of lead in their paint. Four days earlier the Chinese government ordered the country’s banks to increase their reserves as part of an effort to cool down its red-hot economy. But quality concerns and rapid growth aren’t China’s only worries. There is also the government’s need to keep forging ahead on preparations for the Olympics next August in Beijing despite criticism about overdevelopment and unsafe levels of pollution. Knowledge at Wharton asked management professor Marshall Meyer for his perspective on these issues. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
