Winner Take All: China's Race for Resources and What It Means for the World

Autor Dambisa Moyo
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 sep 2013
Hardly a day passes when newspaper headlines or media commentators don't scream warnings of impending doom,shortages of arable land, clashes over water, and political Armageddon as global demand for fossil fuels far outstrips supply,but only one country appears to understand the importance of controlling these crucial assets: China. In Winner Take All , international economist and bestselling author Dambisa Moyo explains the implications of China's aggressive rush for resources around the world, a campaign that surpasses even the voracious demands for raw materials sparked by the Industrial Revolution. As Moyo compellingly argues, China's seemingly unstoppable drive will have global consequences for us all.

Recenzii

If Moyo's calculations are correct, we are in big trouble - which makes the central premise of her book all the more arresting...It's not hard to see why Moyo is such a hit as a public intellectual
Written to clarify important global questions, this book deserves a wide audience
With Winner Take All, Dambisa Moyo offers a timely and provocative answer to two crucial questions: How are China's leaders rushing to meet their country's exploding demand for energy, and what does this mean for the rest of us? It's a recipe for conflict-and at a crucial moment for the future of the global economy
For anyone longing to make sense of tectonic, eco-political shifts occurring in the commodities market, Winner Takes All is a fascinating and important book. By focusing her razor-sharp mind on China's central role in the new commodities rush, Moyo sheds light on and makes sense of a profound and dramatic moment in our history. Her book is a must-read
[Praise for How The West Was Lost] Moyo is a very serious lady indeed
Moyo's diagnosis of the recent disasters in financial markets is succinct and sophisticated...I applaud her brave alarum
