Reviews

Globalization--driven by science and technology discoveries and innovation--has been an inevitable and irreversible trend of civilization. Some argue that globalization is a double-edged sword in that along with perceived benefits it erodes local culture and tradition. All countries need to evaluate the pros and cons of these processes while working toward their own balanced strategy to meet unavoidable challenges. -Dr. Song Jian Vice Chairman, Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and President, Chinese Academy of Engineering
