  • U.S. and European officials often lament that they've fallen behind China when it comes to engaging Africa, Asia, the Americas, and other developing regions. Western governments aren't set up to rapidly deploy the kind of money and resources that Beijing's done with its Belt and Road Initiative over the past ten years.
    While the U.S. and Europe are now trying to catch up, author Jeremy Garlick writes in his new book Advantage China: Agent of Change in an Era of Global Disruption that their efforts are hamstrung not only by money but also by history.
    Jeremy joins Eric & Cobus to explain why he thinks China's political system provides key systemic advantages over its Western rivals when it comes to engaging the Global South.

    I think that the major difference between the American Government and the Chinese Government is that the American Government exists to serve a very small subset of very rich, very powerful elites at the expense of the average American citizens, while the Chinese Government actually tries to serve all the Chinese citizens and has been very successful at improving the lives of all the Chinese citizens.

      In the 1980's there were still indian residential schools in existence in Canada where indigenous children were mistreated and some of them even killed as later school mass graves were found using x ray technology. So, that wasn't too long ago and many of the victims of that colonization abomination are still alive to report on the events that took place. All that isn't widely reported in the western Msm like they prefer to point fingers to others to divert from their own sins.

    I agree that the Western countries need to come to grips with their colonial history in order to be able to improve their relationships with the Global South countries, but they also have to overcome their sense of white superiority that also developed as they colonized those countries. This issue was not discussed and until it can be dealt with, how can Western countries treat the "darker races" with respect as equal human beings.

    @GMATveteran Před 2 měsíci +42

    10:00 - the argument that "democracies are more prosperous now, therefore democracy is superior" has the classic logical flaw of confusing correlation w/ causation. How did the so-called "western democracies" get rich & get ahead in the first place? Was it "democracy" or was it imperialism & genocide? When the so-called "western democracies" were engaging in slavery, colonialism, & militaristic expansion, were they behaving in a "democratic" fashion? Moreover, one can't even make the argument that these countries were INTERNALLY democratic, even if they were externally dictatorial. When the West were the rising powers, they were either monarchies or de facto oligarchies (albeit some, such as the US, had a veneer of "democracy") - without exception.
    The speaker correctly points out that none of the East Asian "tiger" countries were democratic during the bulk of their rapid rise in prosperity. However, it's even more important to emphasize that the West's own experience doesn't even support the causal linkage between democracy & economic prosperity.

  • @albback8176
    @albback8176 Před 2 měsíci +8

    Very interesting discussion. Thumbs up.
    It is worth noting that western pressure only accelerates Chinese urgency for progress. For example:
    1. Chip restrictions have increased efforts to develop technology domestically. China is now designing and improving chip manufacturing on shore. This will also be reflected in AI and robotics development.
    2. Western military containment increases Chinese will to develop relations with global south nations. This is reflected in projects with ASEAN, west/central Asia, South America, etc. This also forces China to expand military development, especially with its navy. I would not be surprised if nuclear arsenal recieves investment as well.
    3. Western economic protectionism forces China to look to other markets to sell to, and to circumvent restrictions. The grip tightens, but the fingers are porous.

  • @JA-pn4ji
    @JA-pn4ji Před 2 měsíci +8

    In addition to Corbus statement on democracy, the American view that most investment and financial flows emanate from democracies, while true, does not flow into the developing South in the same manner it does to the G7 and its politically allied countries. European recent democracies like Poland and ex-Soviet states that have joined the NATO alliance can tap American-run global finance at much cheaper interest rates than any democracy in say, Africa. The US certainly doesn't make investment decisions based on the prevailing political system of a country.
    Also the US has a way of making sweeping statements and generalisations to justify its political and ideological stance without seeing that only a minority of its own fervent allies are beneficiaries of its investment largesse. It's like with Africa, the US would boast of the $billions it gives in aid to Africa meanwhile 90% of that aid goes to one non-democratic country (Egypt) to preserve US geopolitical interest.
    China unfortunately is very promiscuous with its funds. Unlike the US, the Chinese are willing to provide development and infrastructure funds to any country that recognises 'One China', rather than target funds - like the US, to countries they are geopolitically allied to. Western funds are concentrated on investing - except where natural resources are concerned, in Western-allied countries, while Chinese funds are diluted among many countries a lot of whom are merely acting opportunistically.

    An excellent episode on China and Global South along with discussion on Mr Garrick’s book. The author indicates the West’s attitudes on Africa as an authoritative elderly uncle and the argument for the rigidity of Chinese system are self defeating and incorrect. This is not about winning or losing in Chinese thinking and repeatedly they have been saying Chinese system is not exportable and the only political requirement they need from other nations is to recognize one China including Taiwan.

    @barrywong4327 Před 2 měsíci +2

    Fabulous guest with most insightful and honest take on China:
    1. China and Chinese people are pragmatic. They have perfected this trait over several thousands years. In contrast, the west has so convinced themselves that their brand of governance is the holy grail and entirely infallible that it has become lazy, rigid and void of imagination. The delusional and religious belief that when you achieve “democracy”, every success will follow as a matter of course. How shallow.
    2. The guest is so right to say that before the west can begin to compete with China in earnest, it has first to show due respect to China’s accomplishments - that China has earned their accomplishments through good planning, hard work and effective governance, not through theft or trickery. But that ain’t going to happen. The west is too busy vilifying China on a daily basis. Too much pride. It makes it impossible to be humble and too hard to accept reality. Much easier to keep denying.
    3. The west is tone death when it comes to dealing with the global south. The bottomline is: the west is not coming at it with genuine concerns and care. It only does it as a defensive measure against a third party, i.e. China. That much is clear to the global south.
    4. The west is all about theatrics: big and bold announcements, big talk and promises. China just lets its actions do the talking. That much is also clear to the global south.
    5. My advice to Europe is: break away from the US, work and compete with China on its own. The more it “aligns” with the US to counter China, the worse it looks to the global south - the same old white colonial powers closing ranks to exploit the rest of the world. That is not going to win any hearts and minds from the global south.
    The west cannot compete with China until it significantly changes its mindset and policies. That is not going to happen until insights and opinions espoused by the guest speaker and others with similar views become mainstream.

    This Jeremy guy is completely wrong on A LOT. There aren't a lot of "rules" the USA or Europe have to follow. It only comes to when THEY don't want to do something, it's "rules", but if THEY do, then they do it. There is no "africa needs charity" as he says. It's more like "We need to hold back africa, so we keep destabilizing it, and come in with 'charity' organizations to bring in weapons and other items to threaten would-be liberators" and African nations are tired of it. They have a better chance breaking free with military agreements with Russia, China and India than they do with any of these destabilization efforts of the white run nations (so-called West).
    The "africa needs charity" is for public consumption to hide their racism and destabilization efforts. How is africa poor but europe has some money (in a very few people's hands) and Europe has nearly NO RESOURCES and Africa has most of them? Only ONE conclusion, and no academic 'splaining gonna work anymore these days. Nope. That time is OVER.

    The main problem is poor people in poor countries need food and shelter to survive poverty. They can't survive on "lectures" on democratic principles of freedom of speech and religion. Wealthy Americans see the global foreign poor as "homeless people" looking for a handout, which is not true. They are willing to pay using their country's resources as collateral. However, market prices for food are expensive. China provides a pathway to survival by providing food and infrastructure at lower prices than USA.

    The gentleman apparently "forgets" that North Korea has been under SEVRERE sanctions by the Americans for decades. No nation can thrive when it is in solitary confinement.
    The gentleman has also "forget" to mention the largeat "democracy" on the planet, India.
    He might want to check that India and China started at roughly the same spot 40 years ago on GDP terms.
    Intellectual integrity in wanting here.😂😂

      And you would also wonder why such obvious fallacy was not noticed and pointed out by the host who supposedly are very familiar with the Asian history. Oh wait, Eric used to be with Sinica podcast…. Oh I know now.😅

    I disagree, comparing wealth between North & South Korea is like comparing apples with oranges. North Korea is poor is due in large part because of sanctions from US/west. They are poor not because of lack of liberal democracy or lack of an open society. Cuba is also the same, the list goes on. Many countries are poor because the imperial west mandate that they are poor, the evil west will do anything to make sure they stay poor. It's important that everyone understands this.

    Chinese communism equals to getting things done but democracy does not.

    Why didn’t you talk about India that are similar to China. They are world no.1 democracy and was ahead of China in 1947. They are still down at the bottom. How do you support your case about size and democracy?

    I find it amusing when Westerners discuss and talks about China, relating to their decisions making, strategies, etc without a clue on China’s culture, philosophy and beliefs.
    You are at best scratching the surface and viewing it from the lens of your own upbringing, religion, culture, etc.

      Sure, of course, what other lens could we use other than our own? That’s only natural, right? It’s the same when Chinese commentators talk about the U.S. and other regions. But the key thing is to have these conversations. More people from more backgrounds talking about China’s role in the world is a good thing and badly needed in today’s world. - Eric
