Rather than trapping China in low-end manufacturing, they say, these capabilities will power the Chinese economy for years to come and eventually allow China to move up the value chain.\n\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003E\n\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003EIndeed, they argue that the Chinese government\u00e2\u0080\u0099s push to compete with the United States and Europe on novel ideas and breakthrough products may be wasteful and inefficient, partly because of government interference but also and because China has not yet reached an advanced stage of development.\u0022\u003C\/em\u003E\n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E**The article continues on to interview both authors.

The authors find that contrary to popular belief, cutting edge innovation is not a prerequisite for sustained economic vitality\u00e2\u0080\u0022and that China is a perfect case in point.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":[{"value":"Talking with authors about their work."}],"field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EAssociate Professor Dan Breznitz and PhD Student Michael Murphree, authors of \u0022Run of the Red Queen: Government, Innovation, Globalization, and Economic Growth in China,\u0022 were interviewed in the New York Times.\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"\u0022Run of the Red Queen\u0022 in New York Times"}],"uid":"27184","created_gmt":"2011-09-06 00:00:00","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:10:09","author":"Jene Gladstone","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2011-09-06T00:00:00-04:00","iso_date":"2011-09-06T00:00:00-04:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"70117":{"id":"70117","type":"image","title":"Associate Professor Dan Breznitz","body":null,"created":"1449177288","gmt_created":"2015-12-03 21:14:48","changed":"1475894616","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:43:36"},"70118":{"id":"70118","type":"image","title":"PhD Student Michael Murphree","body":null,"created":"1449177288","gmt_created":"2015-12-03 21:14:48","changed":"1475894616","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:43:36"}},"media_ids":["70117","70118"],"related_links":[{"url":"http:\/\/economix.blogs.nytimes.com\/2011\/08\/04\/moving-china-up-the-value-chain\/","title":"Article in New York Times"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.inta.gatech.edu\/faculty-staff\/listing.php?uID=15","title":"Danny Brezntiz"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.inta.gatech.edu\/faculty-staff\/listing.php?uID=64","title":"Michael Murphree Bio"},{"url":"http:\/\/yalepress.yale.edu\/yupbooks\/book.asp?isbn=9780300152715","title":"Run of the Red Queen: Government, Innovation, Globalization, and Economic Growth in China"}],"groups":[{"id":"1285","name":"Sam Nunn School of International Affairs"}],"categories":[{"id":"129","name":"Institute and Campus"},{"id":"139","name":"Business"},{"id":"131","name":"Economic Development and Policy"},{"id":"134","name":"Student and Faculty"},{"id":"144","name":"Energy"},{"id":"146","name":"Life Sciences and Biology"},{"id":"147","name":"Military Technology"},{"id":"135","name":"Research"}],"keywords":[{"id":"1988","name":"Breznitz"},{"id":"802","name":"China"},{"id":"795","name":"CISTP"},{"id":"109","name":"Georgia Tech"},{"id":"999","name":"IAC"},{"id":"851","name":"INTA"},{"id":"13133","name":"Murphree"},{"id":"9943","name":"New York Times"},{"id":"13121","name":"Run of the Red Queen"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EMarilu Suarez\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ESam Nunn School of International Affairs\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:marilu.suarez@inta.gatech.edu\u0022\u003EContact Marilu Suarez\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E404-894-3195\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":["marilu.suarez@inta.gatech.edu"],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
