How a tiger became a pussycat : a comparison of economic development of Taiwan and Mainland China / Miljenko Antić.
Sažetak

Based on capitalism and socialist measures, Taiwan not only achieved better results than Mainland China during the 1949-91 period, but also better results than any other country in the world in promoting economic growth. A lack of market was the main disadvantage of Mainland China during this period of time. However, its successful pro-market reforms and unsuccessful reforms in Taiwan (based on privatization), reversed the tide. During the last quarter of the century, Mainland China has more efficient economic system than Taiwan. As a result, Mainland China became the world’s leading economic power in 2014 and it continues to have higher rates of growth than Taiwan.; Na temelju mješavine kapitalizma i socijalističkih mjera, Tajvan nije samo postigao bolje rezultate od Narodne Republike (NR) Kine, u razdoblju od 1949.-91., nego je postigao bolje rezultate od bilo koje druge zemlje u svijetu u promicanju gospodarskog rasta. Nedostatak tržišta bio je glavni nedostatak NR Kine u tom razdoblju. Međutim, kineske uspješne pro-tržišne reforme i neuspješne reforme u Tajvanu (na temelju privatizacije) promijenile su situaciju. Tijekom posljednjih 28 godina, NR Kina ima učinkovitiji gospodarski sustav od Tajvana. Kao rezultat toga, NR Kina je postala vodeća svjetska gospodarska sila u 2014. godini i ima veće stope ekonomskog rasta nego Tajvan.
