Episode 1
Neil Oliver explores the role of Scots in the reinvention of China. In this episode, he explores the contradiction between China's embrace of both communism and capitalism.
China - a country that fascinates us but one that we struggle to understand. The people's republic, a communist nation of 1.4 billion, born of revolution yet now with the most billionaires of any nation. China has stealthily reinvented itself and is rapidly developing. Shut off from the world no more, it is looking outwards, opening itself to the global markets and playing a part in this transformation are Scots!
Neil Oliver will meet extraordinary Scottish people from all walks of life, living in and working in China today and using their experiences to unpack the mystery of modern China.
In this episode, presenter Neil Oliver will look at the seeming contradiction between China's embrace of both communism and capitalism, its recent amazing development and how it has arrived at 'socialism with Chinese characteristics'!
