China is one of only major world powers that has somehow integrated communism and capitalism - two ideas traditionally thought to be incompatible, even the antithesis of each other. Their economy can truly be considered a modern marvel, having grown exponentially over the course of just 50 years.  But it's not all good: their economy has fluctuations like all others. And with unlimited power of the government to intervene, what will be the result?  It won't work the same as other countries.
