Abstract

Western economies, including Australia, have benefited from several decades of extraordinary Chinese expansion. Yet, in recent years, slowing growth and demographic decline has diminished these gains, while geopolitical developments have further restricted growth-driving commerce. Our purpose is to review key sources of recent contractionary changes within China and to assess their likely consequences for the West. Modelling scenarios emerge that see future economic losses in China and abroad, with the worst affected group being China's own low-skill workers. Long-term losses in the West are smaller but pervasive, with Australia's economic welfare per capita impaired most. Short-term effects depend on China's monetary policy response, with a freeing up of China's exchange rate likely to minimise harm both in China and abroad.

中国经济放缓对西方和澳大利亚的冲击*
包括澳大利亚在内的西方经济体从中国数十年的超常规扩张中获益匪浅。然而,近年来,增长放缓和人口减少削弱了这些收益,而地缘政治的发展则进一步限制了推动增长的商业活动。我们的目的是回顾中国近期收缩性变化的主要原因,并评估其对西方可能产生的影响。模拟情景显示,未来中国和国外都会出现经济损失,受影响最严重的群体是中国自己的低技能工人。西方国家的长期损失较小,但却普遍存在,其中澳大利亚的人均经济福利受损最为严重。短期影响取决于中国的货币政策反应,中国汇率的自由化可能会将国内外的损失降到最低。

期刊介绍: Economic Papers is one of two journals published by the Economics Society of Australia. The journal features a balance of high quality research in applied economics and economic policy analysis which distinguishes it from other Australian journals. The intended audience is the broad range of economists working in business, government and academic communities within Australia and internationally who are interested in economic issues related to Australia and the Asia-Pacific region. Contributions are sought from economists working in these areas and should be written to be accessible to a wide section of our readership. All contributions are refereed.
