These eight megatrends are, according to the Naisbitts (without further comments on these trends):<\/p>\n<p>#\u00a0 Emancipation of the mind<br \/>\n#\u00a0 Balancing Top-Down and Bottom-Up<br \/>\n#\u00a0 Framing the Forest and Letting the Trees Grow<br \/>\n#\u00a0 Crossing the River by Feeling the Stones<br \/>\n#\u00a0 Artistic and Intellectual Ferment<br \/>\n#\u00a0 Joining the World<br \/>\n#\u00a0 Freedom and Fairness<br \/>\n#\u00a0 From Olympic Medals to Nobel Prizes.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0The trend research of the Naisbitts is exciting to read and certainly my favorite reading in October. I appreciated particularly the chapter \u201cJoining the World\u201d. The book contributes well to the improved historical and social, and psychological understanding of China. It has, consequently, a modern interdisciplinary approach, clearly telling us that we should not compare Chinese achievements with Western standards.<\/p>\n<p>An interesting conclusion for the future is particularly \u201cthat the West is a teaching society and China a learning society\u201d.\u00a0 Learning societies are \u2013 as we all know \u2013 ambitious and working continuously for new objectives. This may be \u2013 according to my own conclusions \u2013 China\u2019s most important comparative advantage in the longer run.<\/p>\n<p>However, I find the economic part of the book too uncritical and not profound enough. It should not be forgotten that the Naisbitts are both professors in economics.\u00a0 Probably the Naisbitts wanted to concentrate on trend analysis only. But does this objective rule out more critical analysis of income disparities, regional imbalances, insufficient financial markets, institutional shortcomings, the environment, lagging social security, etc?<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I liked to read the new book of the Naisbitts because of important observations and sometimes unexpected conclusions.<\/p>\n<p>Read on!
