This is Nicholas S. D'Amico I have made extensive use of Ted Koppel's People's Republic of Communism a four-part dvd documentary series which is a great comprehensive look at the PRC as it has been transformed by the Free Trade Agreement signed by Bill Clinton. It also goes back a bit to discuss the opening to China during the Nixon years. The series connects economic transformations in the US such as the importing of cheap labor from Mexico and how that has allowed the US to increasingly ship raw and semi-industrialized goods to the PRC while the US imports more finished goods and low priced electro-domestic goods from China. I highly recommend it to anyone teaching World History, US History, Economics, and US Government.
