Produktbeschreibung
The relationship between the West and China has become a defining feature of the 21st-century global economy. This intricate web of interdependence, woven over decades of increasingly integrated trade, presents us with a profound dilemma. The benefits of cheap Chinese goods have been undeniable, fueling consumer economies and driving down the cost of a wide array of products. However, this reliance has also created vulnerabilities-economic, social, and geopolitical. This book aims to untangle this complex knot, examining the challenges and opportunities inherent in reducing our dependence on China's manufacturing capabilities. The narrative is not one of simplistic decoupling or complete isolationism. Instead, it proposes a nuanced exploration of a more sustainable and balanced global economic order. We will dissect the economic costs of disentanglement, examining potential job losses, inflationary pressures, and the challenges of reshoring manufacturing. Simultaneously, we'll explore the environmental consequences of our current model, confronting the contradictions between pursuing net-zero targets and maintaining reliance on a manufacturing base with less stringent environmental regulations. Furthermore, the geopolitical implications of this economic dependence will be critically analyzed, focusing on the power dynamics at play and the need for diversified trade relationships. Throughout this exploration, the book emphasizes the critical roles of government policy, international cooperation, and corporate responsibility in fostering a more sustainable and equitable future. The hope is not merely to present a comprehensive analysis of the challenges, but to offer data-driven insights and potential pathways towards a more balanced and sustainable global economic system.
