compare democratic system of china and india
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
A half century ago, on 20 October 1962, China’s People’s Liberation Army stunned the world when it pushed into India far beyond the disputed frontier. Almost as suddenly as it began, the Sino-Indian war ended one month later. Chinese troops withdrew from most of the territory that they had captured, and India lamented what prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru called its "national humiliation".
Fast-forward fifty years, and there have been dramatic changes. Both countries have emerged from political hardships to open up their economies and societies to foster rapid economic growth. China has become the "workshop of the world", while India is the "back-office of the world".
Although many in Asia like to criticise neo-liberalism and western hegemony, these two countries have been the key beneficiaries of globalisation. Relations between the two Asian giants have warmed as well: trade is growing so fast that China has replaced the United States as India’s largest trading partner.
Outsiders often look to the rise of China and India as evidence of the grand shift of power from the west to the east. But how do Indian and Chinese intellectuals see the Asian century? And what do they think of each other?
