Produktbeschreibung

Rapid economic growth in China has made China the world's 2nd largest economy in term of its gross domestic product (GDP) right after the U.S. (World Bank, 2019). Will Chinese economy surpass U.S. economy is a question many wonder. Some think that there is no debate whether Chinese economy will surpass U.S.'s, the only question is when will it happen (Bloomberg 2018). This book compares the economic growth in China and U.S. from 1982- 2016 in terms of their GDP per capita (standard of living) and examines whether Chinese economy will surpass U. S's in the next 20 years. The results indicate that independent variables such as capital, labor, saving and lagged GDP per capita have an effect on economic growth in China and variables like capital, FDI and lagged GDP per capita have an influence on economic growth in U.S. The result of this study suggests that in the next 20 years, China will not surpass U.S. in term of GDP per capita.
