China’s state-led economic development model has transformed it into what an EU think tank calls “the world’s sole manufacturing superpower”, making up 35% of global gross production.
The optics are being built for creating an environment in which India accepts an unfavourable negotiated solution that reinforces and rewards China’s aggression on the Ladakh border.
After 48 months, India finds itself unable to reverse the Chinese ingress into border areas that were patrolled by Indian soldiers till 2020. Unfortunately, India is not talking about restoring the status quo in Ladakh as it existed in 2020.
‘The Brotherhood of Billionaires’: the two countries have the largest number of billionaires; ‘The US Government Has Abandoned the Nation’s Poor’; ‘A New Portrait of the World’s Wealth — and Wealthiest’; ‘A Steelworker in China Writes About His Working Conditions’.
The big picture is that after audaciously claiming the mantle of leadership of the Global South as recently as in September, in a span of over two months, India is gliding over to the American camp as the US’ indispensable ally, even aspiring to be a “global defence hub” with Pentagon’s help.
A massive western media barrage was to be expected caricaturing the election result of the runoff in the Maldives presidential poll in binary terms as China’s “gain” being India’s “loss”. Both assumptions about Muizzu are deeply flawed.
What is the state of health care in China? Wei Zhang analyzes the deep institutional issues that plague China’s health care system. Despite its timely and effective efforts to mitigate the COVID-19 crisis, the system still faces deep-seated challenges, many of which can be traced directly to the marketization of hospitals and medical care.
This short exchange between Isabel Crook and Harry Magdoff that took place in end-2002 reflects the complex ways in which dedicated socialists sought to address changes in China and the clarity of the ideas expressed.
“The BRICS Have Changed the Balance of Forces, But They Will Not by Themselves Change the World”; Also: “India, the Reluctant BRICS Traveller”.
For decades, Western media have been narrating the story about the Tiananmen Square massacre as a prime example of the brutality of the Chinese government, wherein supposedly scores of students were killed. However, a new book has emerged proving that these claims are false.

For more than seventy years now, week after week, it has continued to analyse the changes taking place in the country and the world from a socialist standpoint, and thus promote the spread of socialist ideology in the country.
