Why China Is Finally Abandoning Its One Child Policy

Why China Is Finally Abandoning Its One Child Policy

One of the first announcements by the new administration taking charge in China this month was that the one child policy, which has been in effect since 1979, will be phased out. The end of this most repulsive of social policies is good news for human rights in China, but it seems to be motivated not on humanitarian grounds, but rather, because it has saddled China with unintended consequences that will weigh heavily on that nation for decades.http://www.forbes.com/sites/investor/2013/03/28/why-china-is-finally-abandoning-its-one-child-policy/
