1 week ago | economicsobservatory.com | Kerry Brown

Hsinchu Science Park in the suburbs of Taipei, the capital of Taiwan, has an elevated global status. Created in 1980 to pilot a new kind of economic strategy – one in which the government invested and private enterprise innovated – seven years later, it backed one particular winner.

1 month ago | kentucky.com | Kerry Brown

Director David F. Sandberg is back in his comfort zone — a remote cabin in the woods filled with terrifying monsters. After helming two “Shazam!” movies, the “Lights Out” and “Annabelle: Creation” filmmaker announced he was leaving superheroes behind and going back to the horror genre, and with his latest film, “Until Dawn,” it’s obvious he’s happy to be home.
Scunthorpe steelworks: The UK's trade relationship with China

1 month ago | kcl.ac.uk | Kerry Brown

How concerned or otherwise should we be about China’s investment in the UK, in the steel industry and beyond? First of all, there isn’t a massive amount of Chinese investment in Britain, its about 0.2% of our overall stocks. It’s mostly Europeans and Americans that invest here. We’re not talking about big numbers. The Chinese record of investment in Britain has always been pretty patchy and pretty turbulent.

Premier Li Qiang presented familiar economic challenges and policy remedies, with a focus on innovation, particularly in the non-state sector. China is positioning itself as a leader in high-quality growth, with an emphasis on technology and education, as well as a clear shift away from reliance on foreign technology.

The world is now experiencing a new era of multilateralism. The Quad (India, US, Japan, Australia) now sits alongside the G20, the G7, and has been joined by AUKUS (Australia, UK, US), and the great new vision of the Indo Pacific. BRICS, around for almost two decades, looks like it might expand to become a gathering for the newly emerging global South.

The Communist Party of China and the Idea of `Evil' (Oxford Politics Review, April 24 2020)

_Labelling an entity like the Communist Party `evil’ or bad might work polemically. But it ends up doing a massive disservice to the many Chinese still in China who are not members. Some are deeply opposed to their government. Some are supportive. Some are in between. … But the idea that they are silent, suppressed, and without agency is profoundly condescending. _The Oxford Political Review is conducting a series of contributions from field experts and academics studying China.
