Excellent post over at the inside-out China blog on Ted Koppel's recently completed Discovery Channel show, "The People's Republic of Capitalism." The post really shines in analyzing the views of some of the Chinese nationals who spoke during the series and how those views fit in with China's history. It is just a really good piece and I suggest you check it out. The other day, in a post entitled,...
Xujun Eberlein at Inside-Out China blog recently saw Ted Koppel's 4-hour documentary on China, The People's Republic of Capitalism.

While gay people are not able to fully express themselves politically (as in a gay pride march), according to the man Koppel interviews, gays are becoming more accepted socially and his father was able to accept him. He does, however, expect that...
Ted Koppel doesn’t actually cover much geographic ground in his four-part look at change in China on the Discovery Channel, but he seems a bit like a traveler who has lost his Fodor’s.
I think everyone is already aware of the Discovery Channel series on China, hosted by Ted Koppel, which aired last week. I haven’t seen any footage yet, although I will at some point and share my thoughts (if I have anything remotely important to add, that is). Even though I haven’t seen the series, I did [...]
As we mentioned earlier this week , the Ted Koppel special "The People's Republic of Capitalism" is currently airing on the Discovery Channel in the U.S. For those of you who can't wait for the bittorrent, here are some clips from the series, most of which was filmed in Chongqing . The People's Republic of Capitalism: The American and Chinese economies are irreversibly intertwined. Not to rub it in...
IT was interesting to hear Ted Koppel tell Charlie Rose that GM sells more cars in China (notably Buicks) than here in the States. AN Iowa State prof proposes some commonsense alternatives to ever-higher levees. But, as he notes, resistance "will be fierce from landowners, developers, and the US Army Corps of Engineers.
