The Economist (January 27, 2012)
In 1942, the Economist added a special section for detailed coverage of the United States. Seventy years later, the next special section appears: China. “The main reason is China’s rise to economic superpower status, but we are also fascinated by the politics of a country that is out of step with global norms.” The magazine believes that “if China’s rise is to continue, the Communist Party needs to loosen its grip on society and the economy.”
