China and the world economy

Más información sobre el libro

China's integration into the world economy is recognized as a significant development in recent decades, marked by a substantial influx of foreign direct investment (FDI) that has positioned China as a leading trade nation. Key elements contributing to this transformation include the country's opening to the global market, the privatization of state-owned enterprises, and the development of urban and rural industries, alongside a commitment to economic and ecological policies, such as green GDP. This complex situation reveals contradictions: while China's GDP per capita still aligns with developing nations, its enterprises are becoming increasingly competitive on the international stage. This topic-oriented edition of the bi-annual journal Berliner China-Hefte/Chinese History and Society delves into the implications of China's economic integration, exploring how global economic trends may induce significant changes in both foreign and domestic business landscapes, as well as broader economic and societal development. The authors employ interdisciplinary approaches to identify emerging trends in investment, innovation, trade, and finance, while examining institutional, regional, and environmental shifts at both global and domestic levels. Ultimately, these insights offer new analytical perspectives on China's economic ascent following three decades of reform.
