Chinese Big Business and the Wealth of Asian Nations

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Chinese Big Business and the Wealth of Asian Nations examines the crucial contribution of Chinese business groups to the rapid growth of South-East Asia. This study examines major Chinese firms and their increasingly important networks in this era of regional interdependence and internationalization of production processes. The book draws upon unprecedented empirical detail relating to Chinese firms, their growth patterns, joint ventures with foreign capital and responses to technological change and competition and contributes to debates on economic networks, the economics of trust and relations between business and the state in the global economy.

Rezensionen

'Brown's conclusions are familiar. But with a wealth of material and case studies he injects real meaning into these rather lack-lustre ideas...this is a heavy but rewarding read.' - China-Britain Trade Review
