Cramer Discusses China's Rise and Global Conflicts' Impact on Academia

“These are exactly the questions that I think about all day,” Cramer said during an interview in Shenzhen in April.

“But there is another trigger – the rise of China. There is more money in China, so China is building more institutions and there are more academic jobs available.”

He said global conflicts including wars meant “people sometimes are in a country where they have difficulties doing their work because they cannot think clearly or recruit young people because it is an unsuitable situation”.
