… aren't doing much better. Yes, it's terrible. Ancient China was a furious hotbed of innovation, and now it's content to be the world's supplier of cheap manufacturing and the punchline to a joke thathasn't been told yet. It's terrible to see humanity as a whole suffer because of a few backwards people or to see society languish because it can't see beyond the day after tomorrow. But if you're living in one of them, it's nice to know you have company. …

Frog in a Well - The China History Group Blog (www.froginawell.net):
… cultural marathon. One recent exchange tossed and gored the knotty relation of culture (a.k.a “history”) to current behavior. James Fallows, one of the star reporters of our time, is now in Shanghai for The Atlantic. His November 27 blog piece“The” way vs “a” way (Japan vs China dept)is brief but provoking. Fallows looked out his plane window in Changsha and saw the ground crew improvising a siphon to refuel the plane (he has a picture of it). Now in Japan, Fallows reflects, there was always a plan, “the” way to do it. From …

… taking place than they actually do, or that other aspects are unimportant or irrelevant. The challenge is to mix the proper degrees of regimentation with improvisation; some acceptance to conformity while allowing for individuality and innovation.  James Fallows shares his observation of two Eastern cultures in this regard.   If a checklist is seen as an end in itself, then it is a failure.  If it is seen as tool to enable a person to do a better job, then the results can be pretty astounding.  In short, a checklist must not be a crutch or an excuse for failure, but …
