The Many Faces of Modern Communist China

In this episode Mark Robson argues how reducing China to Communism doesn't capture the many layers of growth in modern China. The country doesn't mirror Cuba's poverty, it is actually a picture of abundance and growth. Its cities are equal to any in the West, the country is investing in public infrastructure that benefits the many and foreign visitors are always received with respect. There might be income disparities but the Chinese people remain rooted to culture and tradition.
