THE DRAGON IN THE ROOM: CHINA AND THE FUTURE OF LATIN AMERICAN INDUSTRIALIZATION
Book ID/图书代码： 12347010B37827
English Summary/英文概要： In the eyes of many, China’s unprecedented economic rise has brought nothing but good news to the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean. Indeed, China’s growing appetite for primary products, and the ability of Latin America to supply that demand, has played a role in restoring growth in Latin America, both in the run-up to the global financial crisis and in its aftermath.
The dragon in the room that few are talking about is the fact that China is simultaneously out-competing Latin American manufacturers in world markets—so much so that it may threaten the ability of the region to generate long-term economic growth. One of the authors’ key claims is that China is rapidly building the technological capabilities necessary for industrial development, whereas Latin American tech innovation and sophistication lags considerably. At a deeper level, the findings in this volume imply that China’s road to globalization, one that emphasizes gradualism and coordinated macro-economic and industrial policies, is far superior to the "Washington Consensus" route taken by most Latin American nations, particularly Mexico.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 在许多人眼中，中国前所未有的经济增长对拉丁美洲加勒比海地区各国来说有百利而无一弊。诚然，中国对主要商品日益增长的需求，以及拉丁美洲对这种需求的供应，无论是在全球经济危机的酝酿期还是经济危机的余波中，都在拉丁美洲经济恢复增长中起到重大作用。
在《房间里的龙》一书中很少谈论到，中国产业在世界市场中胜于拉丁美洲制造商，以至于威胁到该地区的长期经济增长。作者的主要观点之一是中国正在迅速培养工业发展所需的技术能力，而拉丁美洲在技术创新和改进方面有所落后。
更深一层次，本文暗示了中国通向全球化所走的道路是强调循序渐进和协调一致的宏观经济和工业政策，这远胜于拉丁美洲各国，尤其是墨西哥，采用的是“华盛顿共识”。(兼职翻译-PZ)
