The first generation born under the one child policy will be the leaders of China in about 10 years' time. Behind the grandiose numbers and figures associated with China--GDP size, growth miracle, production--- is a national psyche which has been critical in determining China's great transformation. What will the psyche of the new generation, the next leaders of China, be like? In other words, where is China headed? She uncovers the complex psychology of the only child generation and the policy's unintended consequences. Dr. Jin Keyu is a professor of economics at the London school of economics, where she researches on issues of globalization, international trade and macroeconomics, and the Chinese economy. She appears regularly on Bloomberg TV and the BBC. Apart from being on the advisory board of Richemont Group, Dr. Jin has also advised and consulted for the World Bank, the IMF, the New York Fed, and the Bank of England. She was named Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum in 2014. From Beijing, China, she holds a B.A., M.A., and PhD from Harvard University. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx

I wonder what the future leaders of China will say about freedom of speech and freedom of press in China? How the great firewall of China for internet that helps open minded of Chinese people? Can there be political survey by third party besides CCP media? You are pointing out the old value in China. Young people are not allowed to make decision for their own. The society will not allow the young people to jump out of the old value! Confucius ideology is blocking China from developing!

Although I am not a Chinese citizen, I don't feel like Dr Jin's statement about Chinese women completely true. I do work with many teams in China and a lot of the managers and leaders are women. There may be pressure from parents to marry and settle down but many Chinese women are very hard working and are still able to succeed in their careers. I do feel the gender equality is much better in China than other Asian countries.
