The article discusses economic growth in China, focusing on the slowing rate of growth of its GDP (gross domestic product) and whether the Chinese economy is likely to crash.

A discussion of demand for economic inputs such as energy, the environmental cost of modernization and high-speed economic growth, and China's position in the world economy is also included.
