Sustaining Economic Growth in China
China’s growth has slowed in recent years. According to some Western analysts, convergence toward the U.S. level of GDP has slowed or even reversed. This lecture will examine several potential hypotheses explaining the slowdown. First, repeated efforts to reinvigorate underperforming traditional heavy industries so far have produced only limited results. Second, relative to the pace of expansion of the economy, household consumption growth slowed starting in 2024. Third, net exports have supported growth in 2024-26 but is leading to trade barriers in China’s major markets, possibly slowing China’s growth further.
