¿Qué sabemos de la China de hoy? No, de verdad: ¿qué sabemos? Seguramente tan poco como cuando Sergi Vicente aterrizó allí en 2002 con algunas nociones de mandarín y la idea de dar clases de inglés durante tres semanas. No llegó a utilizar el billete de vuelta. A lo largo de los más de doce años que siguieron amplió sus conocimientos del país, del idioma y de sus habitantes y, convertido ya en corresponsal de televisión, recorrió todas las provincias chinas en busca de la noticia. Su periplo coincidió con una época de profundos cambios en el país asiático que han catapultado a China a la primera línea informativa. En muy pocos años, la población china, más del doble de la europea, ha pasado de las estrecheces a una confortable existencia de clase media. Como contrapunto, están ahora en primer término el replanteamiento de prioridades político-económicas y las urgencias medioambientales y de seguridad alimentaria de un país demográficamente al límite. Es el precio de estar pasando a cámara rápida del comunismo maoísta al capitalismo de Estado. China Fast Forward es un relato trepidante, hecho desde el conocimiento del territorio y la cultura chinas. Es una historia de amor y desamor a un país. Pero sobre todo es un libro imprescindible para entender cómo es la China de hoy y cuáles son sus retos inmediatos de futuro.

Will China Surpass the United States as an innovation nation? China is tirelessly working to overcome its technological deficiencies by driving R&D initiatives in government and business and adapting Western Internet platforms for domestic use. It is extending its technological reach through a major drive to rival India as a services outsourcing leader and projecting its high-tech brands into the companies and homes of other countries. But whether China succeeds will depend on how it handles such issues as demography, energy dependency, and resource limitations. The environmental challenges posed by China's vast manufacturing sector are well documented, but what isn't widely realized is that China is actually outstripping the West in all manner of green initiatives, renewable energy investments, research and development funding, and other areas essential to improving the health of the planet. However, omnipresent government intervention, environmental degradation, natural resource exhaustion, and other issues threaten to derail China’s rise to superpower status. As the country meets global challenges on a scale that few nations can match, China Fast Forward takes a look at what lies ahead and why China’s success is important to us all. In this book, Bill Dodson explores China's reincarnation from a closed, agrarian nation into a modern, high-tech superpower bent on literally cleaning up its act. Presents an on-the-ground survey and analysis of China's renewable and clean energy sector that identifies the kinds of projects and technologies Chinese enterprises and local governments are hungry for Includes a discussion on how successful Chinese companies are developing their brands to go head-to-head with the world’s best-known companies Discusses how central government conflicts of interest are actually foiling corporate and official drives to innovation across a range of sectors Taking a look inside China's march toward becoming a sustainable superpower through innovation, China Fast Forward presents a balance sheet of the country's technological and social progress on its path to becoming a world leader.

Due to shifts in the contexts of the production and presentation of the music video, more and more people start to talk about a possible end of this genre. At the same time disciplines such as visual-, film- and media-studies, art- and music-history begin to realize that despite the fact that the music video obviously has come of age, they still lack a well defined and matching methodical approach for analyzing and discussing videoclips. For the first time this volume brings together different disciplines as well as journalists, museum curators and gallery owners in order to take a discussion of the past and present of the music video as an opportunity to reflect upon suited methodological approaches to this genre and to allow a glimpse into its future.
