"//Production of traded goods and services has expanded rapidly in economies with large, low-wage labor forces. Most prominent are China and India, which over the past decade have partly opened up to market forces, and the economies of central and eastern Europe, which were freed from central planning by the fall of the Soviet empire." - This is something I found that is interesting to your topic// //"Over the past two decades, inflation has fallen notably, virtually worldwide" - I think this is interesting too.// //"The very high saving rates of the Soviet Union, of China, and of India in earlier decades often did not foster significant productivity growth in those countries."// - why?
