Rory Stewart, the former Foreign Office minister, says: “China has broken a lot of our beliefs about how we thought about things for 200 years. For 200 years there seemed to be a connection between economic growth and liberal democracy. Many, many people thought 20 years ago it was almost inevitable China would move in a liberal, democratic way. Today we are in a much more gloomy place.”

No, liberal democracy has nothing to do with growth, as East Asian countries demonstrated. Until you deliberately and forcefully fucked them up with Plaza Accord, IMF and FTA.
