  • The Economist on innovation models – jugaad, shanzai – in emerging markets – From Jugaad in India to Shanzai in China. CLIPS: "A second area where the Chinese excel is in “bandit” or “guerrilla” innovation, known as shanzhai. The original bandits lived in isolated villages and carried out raids on upright citizens. Today’s bandits live at the margins of official society but are much in evidence: in Shanghai’s People’s Square you will be offered a cheap watch or phone at every step."
