Goodbye To Some Great China Blogs

Wednesday, December 31, 2014 5:35
% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

(Before It's News)

At the end of every year, I clean out our blogroll, making sure to delete all moribund blogs. This is typically a painful process because with the deletions come memories, particularly when the deletions include long-time great blogs. This year’s deletions contain far too many of those.   

No longer on our blog roll, along with some reminiscing, are the following:

All Roads Lead to China.This blog has not had a new post since June. This is Rich Brubaker’s blog and I believe it has been around since 2006. I cannot prove it, but I am pretty certain that this blog was on our very first blogroll, way back in 2006. This was a great China business and CSR blog and I will greatly miss it.

Analects Blog This was the Economist’s China blog and, like the Economist, it was excellent. It lasted about three years before the Economist “merged” it into the magazine itself.

China Film Biz. This blog has not had a new post since March. This is Rob Cain’s blog. Rob is extremely knowledgeable and active in the China film industry and his voice will be sorely missed. I should note that we (mostly Mathew Alderson, our Beijing-based entertainment lawyer) write fairly often on China’s film industry (so often in fact that “China Film Industry” is one of our categories).

Context China. I cannot tell exactly how long it has been since this blog’s last post, but it appears to have been nearly a year. This is Kristi Heim’s blog and its focus was on China and the Pacific Northwest. It had some great in-depth posts and it is a shame that is no more.

Danwei. This was an amazing blog/site run by Jeremy Goldkorn. Danwei predated our blog and I am quite certain it was on our very first blog roll. The Financial Times took over this site last year and it is no longer a blog. We can still get Jeremy’s insights quasi-regularly on the Sinica Podcast.

R.I.P.

Oh, and while we are on the subject, we are always open to suggestions as to who we should be adding to our blogroll. Any ideas anyone?

We will be discussing the practical aspects of Chinese law and how it impacts business there. We will be telling you what works and what does not and what you as a businessperson can do to use the law to your advantage. Our aim is to assist businesses already in China or planning to go into China, not to break new ground in legal theory or policy.
