Overview

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