| '''Chindia''' is a [[portmanteau]] word that refers to [[China]] and [[India]] together in general. China and India share long borders, are both regarded as growing countries and are both among the fastest [[economic growth|growing major economies]] in the world. Together, they contain over one-third of the [[World population|world's population]] (nearly 2.7 billion). They have been named as countries with the highest potential for growth in the next 50 years in a [[BRIC]] report. BRIC is a grouping acronym that refers to the countries of Brazil, Russia, India and China.

| ==Arguments against==
| |
| Politically, China can be characterized as a single party authoritarian state whereas India is a democracy of hundreds of political parties. India's culture can be characterized by a high degree of pluralism<ref name="india_cultural_pluralism">{{cite book|last=Baidyanath|first=Saraswati|title=Interface of Cultural Identity Development|edition=1stEdition|url=http://ignca.nic.in/ls_03.htm|access-date=2007-06-08|isbn=81-246-0054-6|chapter=Cultural Pluralism, National Identity and Development|year=2006|pages=xxi+290 pp|no-pp=true|publisher=Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts|location=New Delhi|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070702222552/http://ignca.nic.in/ls_03.htm|archive-date=2007-07-02|url-status=dead}}</ref> whereas China has a more ethnically homogeneous population,<ref name="china_minorities">{{cite web|url=http://www.paulnoll.com/China/Minorities/China-Nationalities.html|title=List of ethnic groups in China and their population sizes|publisher=Paul and Bernice Noll's Window on the World}}</ref> though the concept of [[Han ethnicity]] is itself challenged. The commonly cited complementary nature of China and India's economies is also being questioned as the service sector in China is rapidly growing,<ref name="china_services">{{cite web|url=http://www.dfat.gov.au/publications/eau_unlocking_china/index.html|title=Unlocking China's Services Sector|publisher=Australian Government, Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade|access-date=2009-10-13|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090326023739/http://www.dfat.gov.au/publications/eau_unlocking_china/index.html|archive-date=2009-03-26|url-status=dead}}</ref> while India's manufacturing sector has seen rapid growth in recent years.<ref name=india_manufacturing>{{cite web|url=http://sify.com/finance/fullstory.php?a=jkmqPgcbcgg&title=Sensex_vaults_384_pts_on_IIP_data%2C_earnings_hopes|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151208222436/http://www.sify.com/finance/fullstory.php?a=jkmqPgcbcgg&title=Sensex_vaults_384_pts_on_IIP_data%252C_earnings_hopes|url-status=dead|archive-date=2015-12-08|publisher=Sify|title=Sensex vaults 384 pts on IIP data, earnings hopes}}</ref><ref name="india_manufacturing_2">{{cite news|title=Gaining strength|newspaper=Business Standard India|date=13 October 2009|url=http://www.business-standard.com/india/news/gaining-strength/373100/|publisher=Business Standard|last1=Standard|first1=Business}}</ref> China also has a [[head start (positioning)|head start]] in international marketplaces and is a large investor in Africa.<ref name="china africa">{{cite web|url=http://www.cfr.org/publication/8436/|publisher=Council on Foreign Relations|title=China's Rising Role in Africa|access-date=2009-10-13|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070715183929/http://www.cfr.org/publication/8436/|archive-date=2007-07-15|url-status=dead}}</ref> There is also the belief that China has greater geopolitical clout than India as well as a permanent seat on the [[United Nations Security Council]].
| |
|
| |
| Additionally, China's massive infrastructure investments into [[Pakistan]] rather than [[India]] suggest the concept of Chindia(n) integration may be pre-mature and/or politically inconvenient.<ref>{{Cite web | url=https://www.wsj.com/articles/china-to-unveil-billions-of-dollars-in-pakistan-investment-1429214705 |title = China Readies $46 Billion for Pakistan Trade Route}}</ref>

| |
| ==Challenges for growth==
| |
| It is seen at present for both India and China to overcome major and mutual challenges such as regional and societal income disparities, moving up the value chain towards greater innovation, and also environmental degradation for Chindia to prosper and actually take effect in future.<ref name="chindia_fate">{{cite web|url=http://www.allbusiness.com/economy-economic-indicators/economic-conditions-recession/12523082-1.html|title='Chindia' future and its fate|publisher=Business Monitor Online}}</ref>
| |
|
| |
| Serious difficulties in attempting to find a mutually acceptable settlement for a 2520 miles (4056 km) frontier has been a major stumbling block between the two countries ever since India's independence in 1947. Technical discussions have been going on for decades. They will continue. The difference is that these discussions are now coupled with the leaders' firm pledge to find a peaceful solution.<ref name=Chinda>{{cite news|last1=Ianovitch|first1=Michael|title=Is 'Chindia' Asia's New Dream Team?|url=https://www.cnbc.com/id/101870535#.|access-date=22 September 2014|agency=CNBC|publisher=CNBC}}</ref>
| |
|
| |
| ==Emerging Asia==
| |
| China is seen to assert its global leadership. Many countries in the world are now counting on China to lead the recovery from the recent [[United States|US]] economic [[Financial crisis of 2007–08|crisis]] and the [[European debt crisis]].<ref name="china lead recovery">{{cite news|url=http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/international-business/europe-looks-to-china-for-possible-bailout-help-from-debt-crisis/articleshow/10509168.cms|title=Europe looks to China for possible bailout help from debt crisis|publisher=Economic Times | date=27 October 2011}}</ref> China has also shown leadership ambitions through proposing an alternative reserve currency to the US dollar and extending yuan swap lines to several Asian and even non-Asian states.
