The Coming Collapse of China Free Audiobook Download by Gordon G. Chang

In China, the Communist Party is in a state of terminal collapse. The regime is losing its legitimacy and could be on the verge of collapse. Many of the Communist Party's policies are geared towards short-term gain and long-term disaster, including building ghost cities, subsidizing exports for a cheap labor market, and encouraging debt.

This audiobook is narrated by the author, Nancy Wu. She begins with an overview of China's history and her argument that there are many similarities between China now and how things were before their previous collapse.

On October 5, 1998, a group of Chinese dissidents and Falun Gong protesters gathered in front of the Communist Party headquarters in Beijing. These protesters were members of a loose coalition that included people such as Nobel Prize-winning economist Amartya Sen and human rights activists Harry Wu and Chen Guangcheng.

Gordon G. Chang's book is a prophecy of the future of China, he predicts that China will be the next big world power and will go from being the biggest economy in 2011 to third largest by 2025. But then it will let go of its superpower status, become too busy managing its problems and fail to keep up with the world.

China is in a state of decline, according to Gordon Chang. Many analysts believe that China's leaders are creating a "communist utopia" but the reality is quite different.

China's economic growth has been one of the most remarkable stories in history. But what if China is poised for a collapse similar to that of the Soviet Union? In this audiobook, Gordon Chang provides an in-depth analysis of China's future and what countries will look like when it collapses. From his personal experience as a Chinese-American and his years covering China, Chang provides a unique perspective on how the world might change.
