A groundbreaking look at a new social-political model on the rise John and Doris Naisbitt, longtime China observers, provide an in-depth study of the fundamental changes in China''s social, political, and economic life, and their impact on the West. With extraordinary access, and using the same techniques behind John Naisbitt''s international bestseller Megatrends, the Naisbitts have traveled the country, interviewing journalists, entrepreneurs, academics, politicians, artists, dissidents, and expatriates. With the help of twenty-eight staff members of the Naisbitt China Institute in Tianjin, they have monitored local newspapers in all of China''s provinces to identify the evolving perspectives and deep forces underlying China''s transformation. Their research reveals that China is not only undergoing fundamental changes but also creating an entirely new social and economic model—what the Naisbitts call a "vertical democracy"—that is changing the rules of global trade and challenging Western democracy as the only acceptable form of governing. The Naisbitts have identified 8 pillars as the foundation and drivers of China''s new society: Emancipation of the Mind Balancing Top-Down and Bottom-Up Framing the Forest and Letting the Trees Grow Crossing the River by Feeling the Stones Artistic and Intellectual Ferment Joining the World Freedom and Fairness From Olympic Medals to Nobel Prizes Examining each of these 8 pillars in great detail, China''s Megatrends describes the new China for the knowledgeable and the newly curious, offering fresh and provocative insights and lessons to be learned.

Naisbitt argues that American culture is in a, "confusing and distracted state where we both fear and worship technology, where we see technologies as toys and quick-fixes, and where we become obsessed with what is "real" and what is "fake"--Violent games children play to genetically-engineered animals to wether one can claim to have scaled Everest if supplemental oxygen was used.

In his Megatrends books, Naisbitt proved himself a far-sighted observer of our fast-changing world. This book discloses his secret of forecasting, opening the door to the insights that let him understand today''s world and see the opportunities of tomorrow. He selects his most effective tools and applies them by guiding the reader through the five forces that will dominate the next decades of the twenty-first century.--From publisher description, U.S. ed.
