Abstract

This chapter advances beyond overviews of Western and Chinese institutions and theoretical explanations of problems to present actual examples of institutional degeneration in the West. All of these examples highlight China’s growing influence through trade and economic ties. Most of these examples reflect the stark differences between Western and Chinese institutions and government structures and the nonexcludability of Western institutional surplus. China’s ability to entice foreign acquiescence is clearly demonstrated by these examples, which show detrimental political influence crosses borders along with the gains from trade. Many examples are from the United States, but other Western countries have not been spared.
