Thus The Wall Street Journal today. “As factories run out of money and construction projects idle across China, there has been a rise in the last thing Beijing wants to see: unrest,” explains the newspaper. Nicely put. Economic slowdown is something that both America and Europe have learned how to cope with, politically speaking. But it is something entirely new for Chinese politicians. The relentless drive upward, which started in the early Seventies, seemed unstoppable for nearly half a century, but things are changing as of late. And they are changing fast. China is faced with the economic slowdown in the so-called west, but it is not yet capable of turning its products and services toward its own people. They are too poor to replace the customers abroad, that is. Whence growing unrest. But it is yet to be seen which ideological turn will the unrest take. Against traces of communism that still remain in China? Or against nascent capitalism? But the greatest threat is unrest focusing on the so-called communist party at the helm. That is a can of worms that boggles the mind. A bit like Vatican running the European subcontinent, it is the greatest mystery of the Twenty First Century. Good luck, Chinese comrades!
