The dangers of a rising china

http://www.economist.com/node/17629709

Voilà un texte qui part un peu dans tous les sens, au cas où vous ayez encore un peu de temps.

Colle avec M. Quere de mardi dernier, 16h à 17h.

Merci pour l'article Matthieu
En plus du lien il serait intéressant de donner des pistes de commentaires, personnellement c'est là que je pêche :p

Alors, voilà les quelques pistes que j'ai développées.

1) the article is biased! (les profs adorent qu'on leur explique que leur article est biased) because written by an Englishman (think about links between USA and UK, and China and UK but jourlanlist tries to stay quite unbiased

2)China -> communist country => officially an opponent of liberalism BUT China invented "market communism" => officially communist but belong to globalized world => this is the difference between China today, and USSR during the Cold War

3)War USA/China unlikely to happen (a few reasons for that, among them think about nuclear detterance "I annihilate you, you annihilate me, we don't annihilate each other")

4) China wants to be also in space (they launched a experimental module to lay the groundwork for a future space station one or two weeks ago) USA will bid higher? Maybe... ( American mindset)
Also a lesson for USA, they didn't want China at ISS while China applied a few times => back to the text China treated as an opponent turned into an opponent

5) Political role, both at United Nations Security Council

6) Together they could be able to do great things like finding vaccines (against AIDS as an example)


On aurait également pu traiter le fait que l'article et la photo sont alarmant, Chine = puissance militaire

Si quelqu'un veut plus de détails sur le commentaire, me le demander.
