Yes, obviously we cannot, and should not, "do" China. In the same way
that we cannot, and should not, "do" Silicon Valley outside, well,
Silicon Valley.

So, what exactly is the lesson that China holds for "us", that is,
cultural/knowledge workers (I assume, most of nettime's subscribers fall
into this category, if it is, indeed, a category) in the West. And, more
precisely, what should be learned from China that cannot be learned from
other successful "developmental states", such as S. Korea or Taiwan?
