Why China Lags on Innovation and Creativity

[IndoCarib]

Where are those innovation and creativity coming from free and democratic India? Just take a look at contemporary Chinese artist. A bunch of them are fetching premium prices for their artworks. I don't know one Indian contemporary artist coming close to any of them.

This is in the context of china topping the patents list. We dont claim to top the patent filers list

You claim to be free and democratic and thus have the freedom to think and innovate but so far fail to show much. You also claim that China lacks freedom to think and innovate and yet they do have more international accredited patents and more famous artists than India.

Patents are one sign of innovation and creativity, the other ones are liberal arts. In both accounts "undemocratic" China is ahead of many "democratic" countries. The intention of the OP was to claim that China lacks innovation and creativity due to the lack of freedom and democracy.

The Soviet Union and Nazi Germany were two of the most brutal and oppressive regimes and they were absolutely innovative in science and technology.

There is a difference between those two and China. In Nazi Germany and Stalinist SU, individual achievements were celebrated. They had heroes to inspire people. On the contrary in China, the commie propaganda teaches you that collective "good" comes before individual achievements. Children are taught/ brought up with the belief of Greater good of the country over individual achievements. And thats why innovation and creativity are so wanting in China.

They are not underestimate us, they just keep frame us in order to lag our development and deteriorate our political and moral surrounding. Mostly importantly, they say bull **** about china cause they are jealous about our achievement and disparage us for satisfying their pervert mind.

Germany : Germany was a developed democracy until 1932. Heck, Hitler was able to come to power through election victories because Germany was a democracy. It was the people trained and educated through a freedom until 1932 who drove German innovations until 1945.

Soviet Union : There was little corruption in Soviet Union unlike China. Every gifted students were allowed to realize their full potential through a public education system free of charge. Even so, the Soviets always trailed the US in most areas. China on the other hand has no such public education system where everyone with a potential is trained to their fullest capacity, your future is determined by your parent's wealth and social standing regardless of your own abilities.

You are absolutely knowing nothing about china society, your comment make me wanna throw up. You are a ignorant idiot, report done. PDF should do some knowledge test before someone become a member and post here. Unbelievable stupid comment I have ever seen in my live.

LOL an ignorant Korean-American teaching me German history. How was Germany a developed democracy in 1932? Never heard of the chaotic and fragmented Weimar Republic Weimar Republic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia that didn't last more than 13 years, just one year longer than the Nazi regime? How was the Weimar democracy developed when it was powerless to prevent Hitler to rise? The people in power were trained and educated during the undemocratic Kaiserreich and they were also the reason why the Waimar Republic failed miserable because democracy was not in their heart and mind.

So, in the Soviet case it was not freedom and democracy that enabled them to innovation and creativity but lack of corruption. But I thought your article accused China not being creative and innovative because of lack of freedom and democracy. You bend your argument till they suit your little world, right?

Aren't you a false-flag Chinese?

How was Germany a developed democracy in 1932?

Germany was a developed, not developing, country and a democracy, how chaotic it may be, until 1932.

You can see the effect of totalitarianism on German people through the history of East Germany. East Germany was never an innovator even though it comprised of Berlin and Nazi Germany's heartland. Totalitarianism kills Innovation and Creativity, period.

So, in the Soviet case it was not freedom and democracy that enabled them to innovation and creativity but lack of corruption.

Soviet Union wasn't very innovative; they were followers, not leaders. The Soviet Science and Engineering never quite matched the US ones, and the Soviets were always trying to catch up to the US innovations, which is easier.

Anyhow, China is already on the diverging path of development from Japan and Korea before them, ensuring that China will not reach the Japanese/Korean level of development in the years to come.

Japan 1972 : A budding democracy
Korea 1992 : A budding democracy
Taiwan 2002 : A budding democracy
China 2012 : A totalitarian country with no possibility of democracy and freedom in the near future.
