A recent piece for the Wall Street Journal titled 'China's New Cultural Revolution' by former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair takes an optimistic tone towards China's development. As he notes, it is critical for world leaders to grasp the importance of supporting, rather than demonizing, the country as it continues to evolve and develop further westward. Blair also mentions aspects of cultural life, such as film, art and fashion which are thriving in modern China-this will be very apparent to anyone who has visited the country recently. From my perspective, cultural development tends to follow on the heels of economic development-and at the moment, China seems to be right on track to rediscovering fully the creative potential of its citizens.
