In this book, Yasheng Huang makes a provocative claim: the large absorption of foreign direct investment (FDI) by China is a sign of some substantial weaknesses in the Chinese economy. The primary benefits associated with China's FDI inflows are concerned with the privatization functions supplied by foreign firms, venture capital provisions to credit-constrained private entrepreneurs, and promotion of interregional capital mobility. Huang argues that one should ask why domestic firms cannot supply the same functions. China's partial reforms, while successful in increasing the scope of the market, have so far failed to address many allocative inefficiencies in the Chinese economy.
This book, authored by the head of the American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai during the US-China trade war, is a sobering look at the realities of the intermeshed nature of the Chinese and American economies at a time of increasing political tension. Foreign companies are caught in the middle between compliance with US laws and policies versus doing what’s required to have support in China and access to the world’s largest growth market. Opportunities still exist, but this is a dangerous and complicated time. This book will be of interest to professionals, economists, and scholars of US-China relations.

Digital China: Selling to China Through Cross-Border E-Commerce by Ashley Dudarenok Pdf
China’s cross-border e-commerce market was worth 8.8 trillion yuan transactions in 2018, with 25-34 year-olds as the largest user segment making up 48% of China’s highly educated CBEC consumers. In early 2020. China also approved 24 more cross-border e-commerce pilot cities and has introduced relaxed foreign exchange regulations in its free trade zones. This is an area that China is clearly prioritizing. If you’ve ever thought about expanding your business into China but hesitated, this is the book for you. There are plenty of cross-border e-commerce options available without having to set up a branch office or hire a large group of local staff. It’s a great solution for brands of all sizes. Here’s an excerpt to give you a taste. China is a huge market with great potential. It’s unique, sophisticated, hyper-competitive and it’s not easy to succeed. Despite the challenges, international brands of all kinds are eager to get access to over 1.4 billion Chinese consumers. If you’ve decided that it’s time for your company to take its next big step and dive in, the good news is that it’s not necessary to set up shop in China to sell your products there. E-commerce is a way of life in China and by the end of 2019, e-commerce sales are forecast by some to expand 27.3%, reaching $1.935 trillion USD. This represents 36.6% of total retail sales in the country. Cross-border e-commerce can blur geographical borders so we’ve created this mini-book to help marketers better understand major online sales channels for cross-border e-commerce in 2019. You’ll find out about key players to watch and major e-commerce shopping festivals. We’ll dive into information that will empower you to take action and make wise decisions when it comes to your marketing budget. Social E-commerce and We-Commerce Whether it’s traditional media opening their own online stores, or e-commerce sites adding more editorial content and social features, both sides are coming closer together in the form of social e-commerce. It’s happening everywhere but it’s a trend that’s even more advanced in China. In the West, it’s more common to use an e-commerce site as the final stop when completing a transaction, whereas in China, e-commerce sites are destinations where you can make new discoveries, acquire information, socialize with others who can make informed recommendations and communicate with people who share your interests or concerns. Social commerce has become very popular in China because customer acquisition costs have increased significantly on traditional platforms, like Alibaba and JD.com, so brands and platforms are looking for new ways to engage customers. It’s estimated that by the end of 2022, 15% of all e-commerce in China will be social and it will became a major force in online retail sales. As more e-commerce outlets start adding a social element to their business model, three general categories have emerged. 1. Content Sharing Platforms The content sharing model is based on consumers trust in other consumers, influencers, key opinion leaders (KOLs) and key opinion consumers (KOCs). Brands and retailers cooperate with them to create content that informs potential buyers about their products and attempts to guide their purchasing decisions. KOLs and trusted consumers give products credibility and desirability. KOCs are a role specific to China and WeChat. KOCs are personal accounts listed under someone’s name but they’re administered by brand employees and WeChat users are aware of this arrangement. These accounts publish information, content marketing and many also do a wide range of customer relationship management tasks such as handling complaints, making product orders, handling returns, issuing coupons, promoting sales and more. This role was developed as a workaround on the highly influential WeChat social media platform as it is built for person to person contact so this method is not only functional but also feels more personal and can deliver the immediate action that many Chinese consumers demand. It also enables a low cost ad network as advertising rates on WeChat are very high.

The conventional wisdom that only large corporations can do business in China is a thing of the past. Small- and medium-sized businesses today enjoy the same opportunities in China once granted only to large, multinational conglomerates. In Selling to China, author Stanley Chao helps all businesses learn effective ways to deal with Chinese businesspeople and private and state-owned companies; analyze whether certain products or services are viable for the Chinese market; understand the psyche of the Mao Generation Chinese who are now Chinas business owners, executives, and government leaders; and develop low-cost, market-entry strategies Filled with clear, tangible steps and applicable personal anecdotes, Selling to China bridges the gap between Western and Chinese cultures, languages, and histories to help businesses enter the Chinese marketplace.
In 1968, there were sixty-two lobbyists in Washington; today there are thirty-four thousand, outnumbering members of Congress and their staffers two to one. By 2008, these lobbyists were spending approximately $8.2 million for influence per day. Few, if any, of these lobbyists represent the majority of Americans in the middle class. So it’s not surprising, given these statistics, that real median household income in America has stagnated for over a decade. This hard-hitting book documents that a combination of special interest groups and their army of money-peddling lobbyists, along with government mismanagement of business and the economy by both parties, have betrayed the American middle and lower classes for the last twenty years. The result is a host of misguided laws and policies that have driven jobs and whole industries offshore, never to return. The author takes issue with those who emphasize the potential benefits of globalization without taking notice of its many negative effects on American society. He also argues that inept policy threatens to derail the American economy permanently and that our economic malaise is more than a short-term reaction to a financial market collapse or global market forces. He cites critical areas where changes must be made to reverse the negative trend: • Improving our 1950s-era educational system to produce a workforce able to compete for 21st-century jobs. • Reform of tax codes that have been driving companies and jobs offshore. We are currently a nation that manufactures practically nothing! • Weaning all levels of government away from deficit spending, which drains economic power • Pursuing free trade that also means fair trade. • Ending the cycle of credit-card debt and all-too-easy mortgage credit to finance ultimately unaffordable lifestyles. • Making the United States more business friendly, so companies will grow and provide desperately needed jobs here at home. The author warns that unless we implement these and other recommended changes, the American economy will inevitably decline while China, India, and other up-and-coming nations ascend. He maintains that all is not lost. If we follow the course he sets, we can reinvigorate and renew our economy, rebuild America’s greatness, create 21st-century jobs, and more. This book provides a roadmap for reclaiming American preeminence.

The Domestic Dynamics Of China's Energy Diplomacy by Zhang Chi Pdf
Since the beginning of the 21st century, China's energy diplomacy has been expanding rapidly and the country is searching for energy resources worldwide. This movement has not only improved China's energy security and international relations, but also enabled the Chinese national oil companies (NOCs) to access new investment markets and implement development strategies. The Chinese government and the NOCs need each other's support to realise their respective interests. The interaction between the government and the NOCs will have a critical influence on China's energy diplomacy. The Domestic Dynamics of China's Energy Diplomacy explores the long-neglected domestic dynamics of China's energy diplomacy, in particular the interaction of national and corporate interests. It argues that the convergence of national and corporate interests is the key momentum of China's energy diplomacy. It observes that the government-NOC relationship has been evolving with China's economic and enterprise reform. Finally, it tests the empirical evidence of the domestic dynamics of China's energy diplomacy against the three mainstream international political economy theories, showing their merits and shortcomings in explaining the phenomenon, before providing an alternative conceptualisation of the movement.
One of the most remarkable stories of the last century is the emergence of China as a modern economic giant, poised at the beginning of the 21st century to become a great world power. China has embraced the technological advances of the late 20th century and has provided new opportunities for millions of Chinese to improve their lives. While problems have accompanied this transformation, China's future holds unprecedented prosperity for 1.3 billion Chinese and greatly enhanced international status for the government that is making this possible. This new textbook on the People's Republic focuses on the changes which have swept through China for the past half-century. As well as providing a coherent narrative of the major events in China's recent past, China Since 1949 also provides an integrated treatment of: - the history of women's experiences under the communist regime - the Chinese Communist Party’s treatment of ethnic minorities within China's borders and the rise of nationalism among the Mongols, Uighurs and Tibetans - the regional differences within China and the resulting tensions - the social implications of the Chinese Communist Party's attempts to control every facet of Chinese people's lives. The accompanying documents providing primary source materials, the Chronology and Who's Who of key figures help to ensure that this is an indispensable text for students studying modern China.

Competing Economic Paradigms in China by Steven Mark Cohn Pdf
When the Chinese economic reforms began in 1978, Marxist economics infused all the institutions of economic theory in China, from academic departments and economics journals to government departments and economic think tanks. By the year 2000, neoclassical economics dominated these institutions and organized most economic discussion. This book explains how and why neoclassical economic theory replaced Marxist economic theory as the dominant economics paradigm in China. It rejects the idea that the rise of neoclassical theory was a triumph of reason over ideology, and instead, using a sociology of knowledge approach, links the rise of neoclassical economics to broad ideological currents and to the political-economic projects that key social groups inside and outside China wanted to enable. The book concludes with a discussion of the nature of economic theory and economics education in China today.
China's economic growth has transformed the country from one of the poorest in the world to its second largest economy. Understanding the drivers of growth remains elusive as the country is affected by both its transition from central planning and the challenges of a developing country. This book examines the main themes of growth, offering micro level evidence to shed light on the macro drivers of the economy. It also focuses on law and informal institutions of the economy to highlight the importance of entrepreneurship and the development of the private sector.
After the Cold War: Domestic Factors and U.S.-China Relations by R.J. Ross Pdf
As relations between the United States and China move into a period of intense activity and sensitivity, this timely book addresses the impact of domestic factors in both countries on their post-Cold War/post-Tiananmen relations. The contributors examine the issue from a number of distinct perspectives: the increased impact of domestic factors in both countries due to changing strategic circumstances; the politics of China policy in the United States, with emphasis on the role of interest groups vis-a-vis Congress, the media, and other domestic institutions; the importance of domestic factors in U.S.-China economic conflicts; the combined impact of domestic factors in both China and the United States on the most important conflict of interest in U.S.-China relations -- the Taiwan issue.
