Shanghai's lone mention in 25 years of the Harper's Index

harpers_cover.jpg Harper's Magazine recently announced via Twitter that all 25 years of its awesome stats section, Harper's Index, was now available and searchable online here. We searched "shanghai" and got two results. One was about Chairman Mao jackets at Shanghai Tang, and the other was actually related to the city. Here it is, from June 2005: "Percentage change since 1994 in treatment for male infertility and erectile dysfunction in Shanghai: +100." There are considerably more results for "china."

    Oh I see this is just the index, not the whole magazine. Anyway I'll still look for that piece.

    I remember an article in Harpers from roughly early 2005 that painted Shanghai as a futuristic, consumeristic hell hole.



    I can't find the exact citation but I'll bet you dollars to donuts it's in there. I'll dig it up on my lunch break.
