Both economies have shown tremendous growth rates over the last years. However are both countries different and have chosen a completely different growth model. While China pursued a top-down investment, FDI and production driven path, focused India on an indigenous, service industry orientated growth model.

In section 2 both growth models will be portrayed. In order to answer the question which model is more sustainable the term of sustainability will be defined at the beginning of section 3 before the three different spheres of sustainability will be analyzed.
