Summary Annotation A provocative look at the rise of China and India and how it will impact the global balance of power This book provides a fresh, often contrarian view of the rise of China and India and the ongoing shift in the global balance of power. Drawing upon his experience as a leading academic researcher based in Japan, Professor Tselichtchev reveals how, despite their growing dominance in production, trade, finance, and consumption, China and India have failed to increase their power significantly in other key areas. He explores how the global economic crisis helped facilitate the power shift, and he sheds new light on how these Asian giants so successfully turned that disaster to their advantage. He offers in-depth analyses of their domestic markets and considers the role the expansion of those markets will play in those nations' growing economic power. He explores the looming challenges to economic growth they face, including increased global competition for natural resources and an emerging global deficit in everything from commodities, to machines to consumer products. And, perhaps most controversially, he argues that, despite the dramatic shift in the balance of power, neither China nor India has the will or the ability to dominate the world economy. An in-depth, extremely well-researched discussion of an array of issues of vital importance to understanding the power shift, delivered in a compact, reader-friendly format Presents a comprehensive picture of the balance of economic power between China/India and the West, and how it is likely to change in the years ahead
