(By Taylor and Maurizio, with the collaboration of Maximiliano Mauvecin) In a special two-part article, we address the problems of Alibaba and its relationship with the root of its major issues: Chinese Statism. In this first piece, we focus on its nightmare of external genesis. A clear example of how, if China were to set aside its "capitalist communism" and embrace freedom and independent justice, it would already be the number one power today. The other significant issue for the rest of the world is: if it becomes the number one power, still without respect for liberties, without protection of private property, and without independent justice, how will it affect the free world, individual respect, and fair competition? In a world where the digital economy is advancing by leaps and bounds, the Chinese giant Alibaba stands out as a colossus in the realm of e-commerce. Amid a complex regulatory environment and uncertain business climate, Alibaba faces significant challenges that could define its future and that of the Chinese economy. Its substantial decline is strictly due to the impact of stateist, communist policies from the Chinese government, resulting in millions in market and capitalization losses. This article explores the evolution of Alibaba, its current difficulties, and the opportunities that could arise if the Chinese government opts for a more favorable approach toward the private sector and sets aside interventionist regimes, granting freedom and respect for private property and individual decisions.

In response to the trade war, the Asian giant is investing billions of dollars abroad in plants, especially in industries linked to the energy transition

The European Union backed tariffs of up to 45% on imported Chinese electric vehicles (EVs) on Friday as it looks to counter Beijing's subsidies for automakers now targeting Europe.

Although China’s green energy transition and associated economic opportunities are receiving spotlight attention, global automakers are facing steep challenges in the country, from regulatory uncertainties to a fast-evolving innovation landscape. However, industry experts agree that there are ways to successfully navigate the electric vehicle market in China: forming strategic alliances with local players beyond traditional joint ventures, localizing research and development, and cultivating a brand identity that truly resonate with Chinese consumers. With this multi-pronged approach, multinational automakers engaged in the EV battle will have a better chance to thrive in China and markets beyond.
