Eamonn Fingleton: Fierce Advocate for USA Manufacturing.

WARNING RT is a Russian state-owned company.

A former editor for Forbes and the Financial Times, Eamonn Fingleton has been monitoring East Asian economics since he moved to Tokyo in 1985. In September 1987 he issued the first of several predictions of the Tokyo banking crash and went on in "Blindside," a controversial 1995 analysis that was praised by J.K. Galbraith and Bill Clinton, to show that a heedless America was fast losing its formerly vaunted leadership in advanced manufacturing to Japan. His 1999 book "In Praise of Hard Industries: Why Manufacturing, Not the Information Economy, Is the Key to Future Prosperity" anticipated the American Internet stock crash of 2000. In his 2008 book "In the Jaws of the Dragon: America’s Fate in the Coming Era of Chinese Hegemony," he issued a strong challenge to the conventional view among Washington policymakers and think tank analysts that China is converging to Western economic and political forms and attitudes. His books have been read into the U.S. Senate record and named among the ten best business books of the year by Business Week and Amazon.com.

Russian Television WARNING: Readers/viewers always PLEASE NOTE that RT is a Russian state-owned broadcasting network. They seldom highlight positives about western societies with that being especially true of its' coverage of issues pertaining to the United States of America. We occassionally include some of their interviews of appropriately credentialed individuals speaking to issues of interest to those of us concerned about the loss of USA based manufacturing.

An extended perspective on Asian & Chinese hegemony.

America's Fate in the Coming Era of Chinese Hegemony

"... the corporate news in this country is coming from the very corporations that are profiting from and empowering the Communist Chinese new Reich. We’ve been intentionally deceived, by “useful idiots” like Tom Friedman ..."

Fingleton has lived and worked in Asia since the mid 1980s, and he has covered international economics and business since the 1970s. The American ruling elite, he says, does not understand China, nor the nature of the Chinese government. Most members of the elite continue to believe - a la Tom Friedman - that liberal trade will liberalize China. But Fingleton writes that what is taking place is the exact opposite. "Globalization" has merely given Beijing the financial and institutional tools to get what it wants from America, when it wants.

In his 2008 book In the Jaws of the Dragon: America's Fate in the Coming Era of Chinese Hegemony, he issues a strong challenge to the conventional view among Washington policymakers and think tank analysts ...

"...Manufacturing is more than just outsourcing to China. It is more than just assembly work. There are many levels of manufacturing, and the top levels of manufacturing are far more interesting than most of the information economy and therefore American should hang on to their advanced manufacturing ... and if it does not do so it would run increasingly disasterous trade deficits." (In Praise of Hard Industries: Why Manufacturing, Not the Information Economy, Is the Key to Future Prosperity [Houghton Mifflin, 1999])

... the corporate news in this country is coming from the very corporations that are profiting from and empowering the Communist Chinese new Reich. We’ve been intentionally deceived, by “useful idiots” like Tom Friedman ...

Alexander Hamilton

"Not only the wealth, but the independence and security of a country, appear to be materially connected with the prosperity of manufacturers. Every nation ... ought to endeavor to possess within itself all the essentials of a national supply. They comprise the means of subsistence, habitation, clothing and defense ... The expediency of encouraging manufactures in the United States, which was not long since deemed very questionable, appears at this time to be pretty generally admitted."
