Yale School of Management 6 China vs India: Why? In “China is outperforming India” (IHT, Jan. 7), Ramesh Thakur states: A decade ago, China's per capita GDP was about the same as India's. Today it is double. China is outperforming India in almost every facet of national competitiveness, attracting more than 10 times as much foreign capital, increasing its share of world markets and being courted as a responsible manager of global order.

Yale School of Management 7 Ramesh Thakur continues: While keeping costs as low as India's and offering the allure of an even bigger domestic market, China has built much better highways, telecommunications, power supply, seaports, airfields and other infrastructure than India. Meanwhile, some of India's long-standing advantages over China are eroding or becoming less relevant, including English language competency, democracy and the rule of law.

Yale School of Management 8 EDITORIAL DESK | August 29, 2003, Friday, New York Times Freedom's In 2nd Place? By NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF (NYT) ABSTRACT - Nicholas D Kristof Op-Ed column contrasts economic conditions in Ukraine and China, which took diametrically opposite political paths in late 1980's and early 1990's; says Ukraine held presidential election and pronounced itself a democracy, while China massacred protesters demanding more freedom and democracy; says that since then, China's economy has tripled in size and Ukraine's has shrunk by half; says authoritarian orderliness is sometimes more conducive to economic growth than democratic chaos; says perhaps best explanation for different paths of Ukraine and China is not policy but culture (M)
