In 2013 the world began to emerge from the shadow of the global financial crisis. But while developed economies go from strength to strength, emerging economies are split; the process of liberalizing global trade and investment is in stagnancy; protectionism is gaining ground, while bilateral and regional treaties are risingagain. Can this world change for the better? This year, China is at a turning point in the course of its development, and the central government has already sent out a strong signal of “intense and comprehensive reform” : the decisive role that the market plays is acknowledged; further reforms in China’s state-funded and state-owned enterprises will be carried out; financial liberalization will be advanced; land reform will rejuvenate the countryside…This comprehensive market-oriented reform will reconstruct China and affect the whole world by 2020.
