From one of the least developed countries in the world to a significant driving force for global growth, China's phenomenal economic transformation has sparked not only acclaim, but also suspicion. How has the nation made the achievements once thought impossible? What game-changing measures did China take every time others predicted the economy would collapse? And as China faces another turning point in its economic development, what is the biggest challenge in making a smooth transition towards high-quality development? Host Tu Yun talks to Justin Yifu Lin, the former chief economist of the World Bank, on the first episode of our special series commemorating the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

The liberal international order, characterized by rules-based multilateralism and values such as openness and representation, is often portrayed in terms of multiple crises. These crises, often analyzed from a Western perspective, include the reduced support of some Western powers towards certain multilateral institutions and the establishment of new ones by rising powers. However, these narratives often overlook the perspectives of low and middle-income countries, which is why in this episode, we shift our focus to understand how the Global South perceives and engages with this international order.Rohan Mukherjee is an assistant professor at the Department of International Relations, at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE).

China's economy has again achieved a better-than-expected performance amid continuous Western doomsday predictions. How has the country shrugged off all the doomsayers and achieved the steady growth it needs over the past few decades? As China faces another turning point in its economic development, can it make a smooth transition towards high-quality development driven by New Quality Productive Forces? Find out the answers as host Tu Yun has an exclusive interview with former World Bank chief economist Justin Yifu Lin, now Dean of the Institute of New Structural Economics and Dean of the Institute of South-South Cooperation and Development at Peking University, on this episode of Chat Lounge.

Development implies not just growth over a significant period of time but also progressive changes in the structure of an economy. Many influential scholars have identified the crucial role of property rights and the importance of constraining the power of the state while others highlight the importance of political settlements, development clusters, and inclusive economic and political institutions.Shiping Tang is Fudan Distinguished Professor and Dr. Seaker Chan Chair Professor at the School of International Relations and Public Affairs at Fudan University, China. In his latest book, The Institutional Foundation of Economic Development: A systemic account of how institutions shape economic development, he argues that institutions play a pivotal role in shaping and influencing economic development through four key factors: possibility, incentive, capability, and opportunity. In addition, his framework encompasses six significant dimensions: political hierarchy, property rights, social mobility, redistribution, innovation protection, and equal opportunity. Sustained economic development, however, necessitates not only a robust institutional foundation but also strong state capacity and well-crafted socioeconomic policies.Key highlightsIntroduction – 00:24What is economic development? - 03:15The development-democracy linkage - 05:19Why established understandings of institutions are incomplete - 11:30The institutional foundations of economic development - 14:45The new development triangle - 21:02Explaining China's economic success - 25:40Power and influence of local leaders in China - 34:23Achieving sustained economic growth – 44:10  HostProfessor Dan Banik (@danbanik @GlobalDevPod)Apple Google Spotify YouTubeSubscribe: https://globaldevpod.substack.com/

Multinational enterprises are unwaveringly committed to the Chinese market and will keep investing in China, as the country's pursuit of high-quality development and Chinese modernization are set to offer them more development opportunities, according to business executives and experts.The Chinese market has provided a conducive environment for growth of multinational enterprises. As it steps up efforts to expand high-level opening-up, more business potential is unfolding for foreign investors, especially those in high-tech and advanced manufacturing sectors such as electronics, healthcare and life sciences, they said.Allan Gabor, president of science and technology company Merck China, said he believes in the marvelous "China speed" and the country's growth momentum, which is driven by unremitting efforts to embrace high-quality development through the Chinese path to modernization.Over the past decade, Merck has invested nearly 6 billion yuan ($820 million) in China. The country is the company's second-largest market worldwide, with approximately 3 billion euros ($3.18 billion) in sales last year.Merck has invested about 70 million euros to increase its high-purity reagent production capacity and to expand its Nantong Life Sciences Center in Jiangsu province, which is expected to begin operations in 2026.It has also announced its "Level Up" growth plan to further invest at least 1 billion yuan in China by 2025 to enhance localized manufacturing, technology and supply chain capabilities in the electronics sector."Despite the uncertainties and challenges in the post-pandemic era, China insists on embracing foreign direct investment and is continuously rolling out measures and policies that facilitate multinational companies to deepen their footprints in the country. In my opinion, that practical approach is the precious certainty in an uncertain world," Gabor said.In its unique path to modernization, China has increasing needs in healthcare, high-quality food and drugs, solutions on environmental protection and the digital economy, and Merck is in a "sweet spot to continuously contribute with its innovative products and services", he added.Will Song, global senior vice-president of Johnson & Johnson and chairman of the healthcare company's China division, said the Chinese market is increasingly becoming an important growth engine and innovation hub in the company's global business portfolios, and its long-term commitment to the Chinese market remains unchanged."We are pleased to see that China strives to create a first-class business environment that is market-oriented, rules-based and internationalized, making greater efforts to attract foreign investment, and continuing to promote high-level opening-up," Song said.He said his company believes that China's high-quality economic development will bring many diverse opportunities for multinational enterprises, and it looks forward to the country's further opening-up as well as its continuous emphasis on and recognition of innovation values."With its market size, economic resilience and population, China remains an important strategic market in Johnson & Johnson's global business portfolio, and we are here for the long term," he added.The number of newly established foreign-invested enterprises in China reached 37,814 in the first three quarters, up 32.4 percent year-on-year, data from the Ministry of Commerce showed on Friday.The structure and quality of foreign direct investment saw much improvement, even though FDI into the Chinese mainland in terms of actual use dropped 8.4 percent year-on-year to 919.97 billion yuan over the period, according to the data.FDI used in China's manufacturing sector amounted to 262.41 billion yuan during the January-September period, with an increase of 2.4 percent year-on-year. High-tech manufacturing saw remarkable growth of 12.8 percent year-on-year.Justin Yifu Lin, dean of Peking University's Institute of New Structural Economics, said that the Chinese economy, with strong endogenous strength from factors such as an enormous domestic market and increasing innovation capability, is well poised to rebound and show dynamic growth, making great contribution to global economic growth.Lin, who is a former senior vice-president and chief economist of the World Bank, expects the Chinese economy to grow 5.5 percent — or even 6 percent — this year, and it will continue to be a key driver of global growth.Zhou Mi, a senior researcher at the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Cooperation, said that as China's economic recovery is gathering pace, consumption rebound and improvement in cross-regional development coordination will create a more conducive environment for foreign investors in China.Zhou said he believes that China will become more attractive to foreign investors, especially for those in the manufacturing and producer services sectors, considering the country's efforts to remove all restrictions on foreign investment access in the manufacturing sector and its strengthening growth momentum in high-tech fields.Leon Wang, executive vice-president of biopharmaceutical company AstraZeneca and president of AstraZeneca China, told China Daily earlier that the company hopes to contribute to the high-quality development of the Chinese economy.AstraZeneca will further deepen its market presence in the country through its regional-headquarters strategy, while supporting local economic development and driving dual-circulation development, he said.Zhang Fei, associate director of the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Cooperation's Institute of Foreign Investment, said she expects more government moves to increase FDI inflows and improve FDI structure.Sectors such as automobile manufacturing, medical equipment and aerospace have great potential to boost FDI in China, she said.Reporter: Liu Zhihua

Prof. Robert H. Wade (LSE). Why did western development organizations (e.g. World Bank, USAID, DfID) turn away from "production policy" and "production investments" and embrace "eliminate extreme poverty" as their mandate? A study of western states' ability to set the agenda of "international development", and the recent response of developing country governments. Western states have shown a remarkable ability to coordinate among themselves to protect their leading role in international organizations against attempts by governments of some “emerging market economies and developing countries” (EMDCs) to wield more power to shape the prescriptions of these organizations . This talk illustrates how western states have succeeded in (1) marginalizing organizations where they do not always control the agenda (such as the UN General Assembly and its High-Level Commissions, e.g. the Stiglitz Commission on the Global Financial Crisis of 2009, and the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, UNCTAD, established as a think tank for articulating views from developing countries), and (2) keeping control of the post-war legacy organizations (notably the World Bank and IMF). The talk then explains why, in the wake of the end of the Cold War, the West changed the development agenda away from economic growth, infrastructure investment and building capitalist institutions, and embraced “extreme poverty reduction” as the goal of development assistance. From then on, “industrial policy” became a forbidden phrase, and even WB chief economist Justin Yifu Lin (2008-2012) and his “new structural economics” were marginalized. Rising tensions with the preferences of developing country governments have produced a recent surge of “by-pass” organizations, such as the New Development Bank. Robert H. Wade is professor of political economy at the other LSE. Educated in New Zealand, he has taught at Sussex University, Princeton, MIT, and Brown. He worked as a staff economist in the World Bank in the 1980s. His book Governing the Market: Economic Theory and the Role of Government in East Asia’s Industrialization (Princeton, 1990, 2004) won the American Political Science Association award for Best Book or Article in Political Economy. He won the Leontief Prize for Advancing the Frontiers of Economic Thought in 2008. Speaker(s): Robert Wade (LSE) Event Date: 31 March 2015 Released by: SOAS Economics Podcast
