Trade and foreign direct investment (FDI) play a crucial role in
shaping China s development strategies. The development of China s
economy creates strong pressures for continuous restructuring.
"China" therefore explores how trade and FDI affect China s
development strategies regarding the process and pattern of
restructuring. The book aims to provide the reader with findings
that shed new light on the related issues and problems. The first
chapter introduces the topics, and subsequent chapters enter into
theoretical discussion and empirical analysis of trade, FDI, and
development strategies, followed by a concluding final chapter.

This book is on globalization and sustainable growth in China.
Thanks to the market-oriented policy reforms initiated in the late
1970s, China has achieved spectacular economic growth over the past
several decades, and its economic structure has experienced great
transformation. In the meantime, in the general context of
globalization, the whole country has also gradually opened up to
foreign trade and foreign direct investment, transforming itself
from a virtually completely closed economy to a major trading
nation and the largest developing-country destination for foreign
direct investment in the world. In the first three chapters of this
book, we investigate the potential and actual mechanisms and
channels through which globalization, especially openness to
foreign trade and foreign direct investment, affects industrial
development and growth disparities in China. The current wave of
globalization has encouraged economic growth in the world economy
and affected all sides of international economic involvement. In
the next four chapters of the book, we study China and the world
economy. We first join the line of research on the trade frictions
between China and the United States, including an analytical
chapter on trade imbalance and protectionist policy, and an
empirical chapter on business cycle synchronization between China
and the US. A chapter on growth cycles in the BRICS is also
included to explore growth and trade linkages among these five
emerging market economies. A new "conventional wisdom" on
globalization is that trade and financial openness do not lead to
higher economic growth by themselves, in the absence of
institutional reforms. Motivated by the Chinese experience, we
develop an analytical framework in the last chapter to examine the
case of growth targeting in China and draw policy implication for
LDCs on how to achieve positive and sustainable economic growth.
This book provides the readers with new facts and new findings that
shed light on their understanding of globalization and sustainable
growth in China.

This book provides the readers with new facts and new findings that
shed light on their understanding of globalization and sustainable
growth in China.
Substantial disparities across different Chinese regions are one of
the most prominent features in China's development process. This
book investigates the mechanisms through which openness affects
regional economic growth and interregional disparities in China.
Based on the latest data and employing a variety of panel data
regression techniques, it provides readers with new findings that
shed light on the effects of openness on China's regional economic
growth and the evolution of the country's interregional
disparities.
This book focuses on the key determinants of China's sustainable
development in the general context of globalization from an
environmental perspective. The author presents expert analysis on
China's role in the world economy, trade openness, cross-border
investments and sustainable development in China. Readers will gain
an in-depth understanding of various important issues concerning
China's current and future environmentally sustainable development
in this new era of globalization.

There is a growing concern among Chinese researchers and
policymakers about China's industrial development being
unsustainable and the irreversible depletion of natural resources
and deterioration of the ecological environment. The relationship
between industrial development, pollution and the environmental
quality is an important issue that deserves careful study.
Environmental considerations play a crucial role in shaping China's
development strategies. Green development of China creates strong
pressures for continuous transforming, upgrading and restructuring
of the Chinese economy. This book explores how China's industrial
development relates to pollution and environmental quality, and how
considerations about such issues associated with the ecological
system affect China's development strategies.
China has achieved spectacular growth in the past forty years, and
its economic structure has experienced great transformation. The
country has also gradually opened up to foreign trade and direct
foreign investment, transforming itself from a virtually completely
closed economy into a major trading nation, and the largest
developing-country destination for foreign direct investment in the
world. However, since this reform, China has become a superpower in
energy consumption. It has also become a big producer of pollution
emissions. It has been widely argued that Chinas rapid processes of
industrial development and opening up were relying too heavily on
increasing inputs of environmental resources. Unsustainable
environmental practices posed serious threats to Chinas natural
environment. A growing concern China now faces is that the current
pattern of economic development may not be sustainable, because it
tends to lead to irreversible depletion of natural resources and
deterioration of the ecological environment. The relationship
between regional growth, sustainability in development, and the
natural environment in China is thus an interesting and important
issue that deserves further in-depth studies. Environmental
practices play an important role in shaping Chinas regional growth,
interregional inequality, and its future development strategies.
Sustainability in growth and development from an environmental
point of view exerts strong influences on the continuous
restructuring and upgrading of the Chinese economy. The analyses in
the present book delve into issues related to regional growth,
interregional inequality, and the prospect of sustainable
development in China from an environmental perspective. This book
provides the reader with related facts, thoughts, models, and
empirical results as well as discussions that shed light on those
issues.
This book explores how China's industrial transformation and
development depend on technology and innovation and how
considerations about issues associated with technology and
innovation may affect China's development strategies.
Market-oriented reforms initiated four decades ago have constantly
fueled a high speed of development in China. The country's
industrial structure has experienced rapid evolution. In the
meantime, especially in the general context of globalization, the
country has also opened to foreign trade and foreign direct
investment, transforming itself from a virtually completely closed
economy into a major trading nation and the largest developing
country destination for foreign direct investment in the world.
Technology is thought to be one of the key driving forces that
shape the transformation of the Chinese economy. Owing to different
speeds of innovation and technology diffusion, uneven development
is one major issue in the process of China's industrial
transformation under new trends of globalization. Substantial
disparities across different Chinese regions, e.g., the gaps in
regional industrial development and those in incomes and living
standards, have been one prominent feature of China and are
(needless to say) closely related to different speeds of innovation
and technology diffusion. The relationship between technology
diffusion, innovation, and industrial development is an important
yet complicated issue that deserves careful study. Considerations
related to technology and innovation play a crucial role in leading
and shaping China's development strategies and routes. Sustainable
development of China creates strong pressures for continuous
transforming, upgrading, and restructuring of the Chinese economy,
and in all of these processes, innovation and technology diffusion
play a fundamental role. The book presents to the interested reader
facts, thoughts, models, empirical results, and discussions that
shed light on those issues.
Market-oriented reforms initiated four decades ago have constantly
fueled a high speed of development in China. The country's
industrial structure has experienced rapid evolution. In the
meantime, especially in the general context of globalization, China
has also opened to foreign trade and foreign direct investment,
transforming itself from a virtually completely closed economy into
a major trading nation and the largest developing-country
destination for foreign direct investment in the world. Human
capital is thought to be one of the key factors that shape the
transformation of the Chinese economy. With different human capital
intensities, uneven development is one major issue in the process
of China's industrial transformation under new trends of
globalization. Substantial disparities across different Chinese
regions, e.g. the gaps in regional industrial development and those
in incomes and living standards have been one prominent feature of
China, and are closely related to different speeds of human capital
accumulation. This book therefore aims to explore the potential and
actual mechanisms through which human capital accumulation and
human capital intensity may affect industrial development and
development disparities in China. The book is able to provide the
readers with new facts and new findings that shed light on their
understanding of important issues related to human capital and
economic transformation of China.
This book describes and discusses the various aspects of the
changing "landscape" of China's industrial development within the
general context of globalisation. In the past four decades, the
spectacular economic growth and development of China has surprised
the world. China has leapt from one of the poorest countries to the
second-largest economy in the world. The development path of
China's economy is different from that of any other country, thanks
to its unique national system. As a country that adopted the
centrally planned economy in the past, the government played a very
important role in the national economy. Even until now, government
planning still greatly influences many aspects of the country
despite the gradual perfection of the market system. Besides the
government's role, external factors coming worldwide can also be
major driving forces behind the development of a national economy.
For developing countries, industrial development is almost always
the national priority. This book focuses its attention on the
discussing of the evolution and development of China's industrial
structure under the general trends of globalisation. It is always
preferred that China can constantly strike a balance between its
speed of overall economic growth and the soundness of the
development of its industrial structure. In this book, we present
the reader a true "landscape" of China's industrial development
that is changing and being constantly shaped by the various driving
forces coming from the current trends of globalisation. If you are
one of the interested readers, we believe this book is one of the
best choices for you.
