DAMBISA MOYO: IS CHINA THE NEW IDOL FOR EMERGING ECONOMIES?

The developed world holds up the ideals of capitalism, democracy and political rights for all. Those in emerging markets often don't have that luxury.

Instead, a different model, embodied by China, is increasingly appealing. A call for open-minded political and economic cooperation in the name of transforming the world.| By TED
