China's Now Asia's #1 Economy
Although China is growing rapidly, it faces challenges from internal unrest and a lack of full integration into the global economy.

On CNBC’s The Kudlow Report, David Rothkopf argued that the popular uprising in Egypt could prove contagious to China, whose regime has faced 70,000 to 80,000 demonstrations a year in the past years. Rothkopf argued that China’s political problems, its inability to communicate clearly with the international community, and its failure to fully integrate into the global economy undermine claims that the nation's rapidly growing GDP will make it a world leader.

- After Ilia II: What Will a New Patriarch Mean for Georgia?Commentary
The front-runner to succeed Ilia II, Metropolitan Shio, is prone to harsh anti-Western rhetoric and frequent criticism of “liberal ideologies” that he claims threaten the Georgian state. This raises fears that under his leadership the Georgian Orthodox Church will lose its unifying role and become an instrument of ultraconservative ideology.
