          Abstract

          Abstract We examine the drivers of China’s recent economic growth slowdown considering a demand-led growth perspective and the structural changes over the last decades. We argue that such a slowdown corresponds in part to a desired trajectory towards a growth pattern based on a greater protagonism of domestic consumption and a more balanced economy focused on innovation. This change referred to as the “new normal” responded to external and internal structural trends and distributive and institutional conflicts that, after 2008, reduced the low wage growth path and generated high real estate speculative investments. We argue that the new normal will possibly lead to a moderate growth rate for China’s historical experience, but higher than that of the OECD, and possibly more socially and environmentally balanced than previously.

          Resumo O presente artigo examina os fundamentos da recente desaceleração do crescimento econômico da China, considerando tanto uma perspectiva de crescimento liderado pela demanda quanto as mudanças estruturais ao longo das últimas décadas. Argumenta-se que tal desaceleração corresponde, em parte, a uma trajetória desejada em direção a um padrão de crescimento baseado em um maior protagonismo do consumo interno e em uma economia mais equilibrada e focada na inovação. Esta mudança denominada “Novo normal” respondeu às tendências estruturais externas e internas e aos conflitos distributivos e institucionais que, após 2008, reduziram a trajetória de crescimento baseada em baixos salários e geraram elevados investimentos especulativos imobiliários. Sustenta-se que o “Novo normal” conduzirá possivelmente a uma taxa de crescimento moderada para a experiência histórica da China, mas superior à da OCDE, e possivelmente mais equilibrada social e ambientalmente do que anteriormente.
