The first video that I watched was about the emerging Chinese economy. The video focuses on the prosperity and development of China despite Western assumptions that economic growth comes from democratic governments that encourage privately owned businesses. This video also referenced the success of China as a role model to developing countries in Africa through its rapid growth and continuing aid.

The second video focuses on the growth of the Chinese and American governments and economies. China, contrary to popular connotations of the Chinese government, it functions well and constantly adapts to the new situations with different parts of the government unheard of the Americans. Although, the government was never "elected,"its ability to maintain both power and popularity has been overwhelming when compared to those of its democratic counterparts.

The final video that I watched was about the innovation and growth in India. The video focused on the ability of India to innovate and grow in India, instead of in the Western world. In an analysis of Silicon Valley and other large centers for innovation with multi-national companies, the speaker found that Indians took part in "invisible innovation." This meant that only the final product is used as a standard for consumers, which only recognized the visible innovation and final product, not the effort to organized and modernize and innovate that product while it was being designed.
