In BIG DRAGON, Dan Burstein joins with China specialist Arne de Keijzer to offer a comprehensive look at China and its future. They suggest that no other country poses such significant business and political questions for the West and therefore the business world must develop new strategies for dealing with China. The authors present a practical blueprint for business people, policy makers and concerned citizens alike for maximising opportunity (economic as well as political) and minimising any chance of conflict. In dealing with China, the book warns that the West will have to revise its elitist view that its principles and mores are superior, whether culturally, economically or politically. China, the authors say, will have to be dealt with on its own terms. If the West fails to do so, it will have dire consequences for the world. The authors articulate a fresh, intelligent, and innovative business and political strategy, rooted in realistic assessments of where China is coming from and where it is headed.BIG DRAGON's strength lies in its recognition of the possible conflicts, but also in the way it clearly identifies the way toward a creation of a new mutuality of economic and political interest between the West and China.
Daniel Burstein, bestselling author of Yen! And Euroquake, returns with strategy and advice for dealing with Japan that could completely reshape the understanding of the US-Japan relationship.Feeling defeated for years, America’s fear of Japan subsided when the Tokyo stock market crashed and the Japanese economic bubble burst. As a result, it became fashionable to dismiss Japan as a threat. In the pages of Turning the Tables, global business expert Daniel Burstein warns readers that if Americans ignore Japan, they will be ill-prepared for a Japanese economy that returns leaner, meaner, and more competitive than ever. Burstein shares advice and strategy on forming a partnership with Japan that could catapult the United States into a position of global leadership in the borderless economy that the world has come to know.
