This book was released on 1997 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study primarily asks the following hypothetical question: What is the impact if China totally relaxes its trade and foreign investment policy constraints? How would this affect China, Asia and other trading nations, including Canada? To answer these questions, this study adopts the computational general equilibrium (CGE) approach. Furthermore, some background is provided to understand the current evolving state of the Chinese external sector and its implications for Canada, Asia and other economies. China's outstanding trade barriers and price distortions that might have impeded the expansion of some of Canada's exports to China are also highlighted.
Download or read book Analysis of China s overseas investment policies written by Huang Wenbin and published by CIFOR. This book was released on 2012-01-02 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, in line with Chinas Going Out strategy announced in 2000, Chinas overseas investment activities have increased greatly and at increasing rates. By the end of 2009, the total value of Chinas outward foreign direct investment had reached US$5.6 billion. Policies have played strong supporting roles in bringing about this trend by facilitating and encouraging Chinese companies to make overseas investments. This working paper summarises these policies based on an analysis of policy changes over time and identifies the main drivers of these changes. It also highlights some key research questions of relevance to deepening understanding of the impacts of Chinese trade and investment in Africa. The project Chinese trade and investment in Africa: Assessing and governing trade-offs to national economies, local livelihoods and forest ecosystems project, launched in March 2010, aims to advance understanding of the social, economic and environmental impacts of Chinese investment in commodities or sectors affecting forests and livelihoods in Africa (e.g. timber, mining, agriculture), and to strengthen the capacity of decision-makers in government, civil society and the private sector to enact reforms to maximise social and economic benefits while minimising adverse effects.

Download or read book Strategies of Multinational Corporations and Social Regulations written by Xavier Richet and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-03-18 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This contributed volume seeks to provide a unique window on the globalization process by analyzing the dynamics of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Europe and Asia, as well as its influence on the renewal of public policies and regulations, both transnational and local. It discusses the link between the trans-nationalization of productive and business systems and the renewal of local regulations in the light of concerns over competitiveness and attractiveness, as well as new social tensions. Multinational corporations (MNCs) as key actors of globalization are central for understanding the new interactions between the global, regional and local dimensions as well as for highlighting the challenges of regulation both at transnational level and within national boundaries. Research approaches along two broad lines are presented: First, a theoretical and empirical approach that examines links between the strategies of multinationals and local public policy in order to contribute to a better understanding of the institutional dynamics of social regulation. Second, a comparative approach that compares regional spaces, with particular attention to Europe on the one hand, and to the two great emerging powers, China and India, on the other.

Book excerpt: L'an dernier, dans notre livre « Crise du système impérialiste mondial ― La décomposition finale de "l'industrie de bazar" et la naissance d'un nouvel ordre impérialiste mondial », nous avions souligné le caractère structurel de la crise actuelle, ainsi que le différentiel croissant entre l'impérialisme chinois et ses plus puissants concurrents. Nous avions également souligné que les résultats du plan de relance chinois contrasteraient nettement avec ceux de ses concurrents. Nous avions enfin souligné l'inéluctabilité de l'aggravation du déficit des Etats bourgeois qui seraient en définitive forcés de faire retomber le poids de la crise sur les masses exploitées au moyens de PAS (qualifiés de "plans de rigueur"), visant à la destruction des chaînes dorées de l'esclavage salarié. Les derniers mois ont confirmé toutes ces anticipations, comme l'illustre ce livre qui fait le point sur la rapide montée en puissance de l'impérialisme chinois et ses implications actuelles et futures.

Download or read book International Trade Capital Flows and Economic Development in East Asia written by Anthony Bende-Nabende and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides an understanding of how international trade and capital flows have engineered the development process in East Asia, and examines the real and potential challenges that the region is expect to encounter in the twenty-first century. It integrates four topics (i.e. capital flows, East Asia, globalization and economic development) that are at the centre of the social, political and economic debate. The text highlights the region's growing strategic importance in the twenty-first century globalizing world, where transnational corporations are playing an increasingly decisive role in the global distribution of production and trade. It blends generalised regional analyses with country-specific case studies in the world's most dynamic region. It is so well designed that each of the seventeen countries that comprise the region gets some space for discussion. Thus, the text is a valuable contribution to the social science and business literature, with a special focus on the now strategic region of East Asia.

Ce livre décrit les dessous et les enjeux de la crise multiforme qui accompagne la décomposition de puissances impérialistes sur le déclin, une crise qui prend l'allure d'une inexorable descente aux enfers à laquelle ils semblent bien incapables d'échapper...
Download or read book Fuelling Economic Growth written by Michael Graham and published by IDRC. This book was released on 2009 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The private sector is playing an increasingly important role in the funding of scientific research. As public sector research declines in the countries of the north and the south, research and development carried out by the private sector becomes more important for innovations that have economic potential. In some cases networks between local firms and multinationals can support learning which leads to economic growth. What are the policies which support such partnerships and what are the institutional arrangements that foster research? Seven case studies from Argentina, China, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Tanzania, Peru, the Philippines and Vietnam examine how policies have been developed and implemented to encourage innovation.
