In the last three decades China has surged from an underdeveloped country to the world's second-biggest economy. Yet as the recent tumult on global markets shows, China risks destabilizing the world as it makes the difficult transition from an investment-driven to a consumer-oriented economy. The headwinds of a rapidly aging population, rampant corruption and enormous national debt are also slowing the country's growth. Whether China succeeds or fails has huge implications not only for its citizens but for the rest of the world.
Mr. Kroeber will sign copies of his new book, China's Economy: What Everyone Needs to Know.
REGISTRATION DEADLINE IS OCTOBER 19. Limited seating available.
