520    China is the world's next superpower. Should the West 
       celebrate - or be afraid? China's economy is growing 
       phenomenally, with half the world's cranes currently on 
       its soil. Its 1.3 billion people have around 300 million 
       mobile phones, and a purchasing power second only to the 
       US. Yet, especially in rural areas, there is widespread 
       poverty. But few in the West know much about China. 
       Popular press coverage is limited to stereotypes and the 
       serious media to economics and business. What does it mean
       to us?
