Why is China the world second largest economy despite lacking democratic values?
But doesn't lack of democracy lead to corruption and inequality, which could hinder economic growth in the long run?
It is true that corruption and inequality can negatively impact economic growth, but China's government has taken steps to address these issues. For example, the government has cracked down on corruption within the Communist Party, and has implemented policies aimed at reducing income inequality.
