Book Pioneering Economic Reform in China s Special Economic Zones

Download or read book Pioneering Economic Reform in China s Special Economic Zones written by Weiping Wu and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-08-17 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1999, this volume assessed the economic situation of Shenzhen in Guangdong Province, China, including its trade connections with Hong Kong and foreign investments in the area. Designated as one of four Special Economic Zones (SEZ) as part of China’s domestic economic reform in 1979, Weiping Wu examines Shenzhen’s economic situation in the context of Hong Kong’s transition just two years prior to publication in 1997. Wu explores the developments in Shenzhen in local policy, labor costs, export performance, domestic linkages and complementarity with Hong Kong as a result of Hong Kong’s closer connection with the Shenzhen trade area. Shenzhen’s suitability can then be assessed in its role as an SEZ to experiment with and digest western technology and management techniques for inland China and as a buffer between China and the wider world.

Book Technology Transfer Under China s Foreign Investment Regime

Download or read book Technology Transfer Under China s Foreign Investment Regime written by Weihuan Zhou and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most longstanding and significant issues in the U.S.-China trade war and international trade regulation in general has been the so-called “forced” technology transfer. To contribute to the ongoing debate over this issue, this article reviews the role of technology transfer in the evolution of China's foreign direct investment (“FDI”) regime over the past four decades and shows that the use of foreign investment to promote diffusion of advanced technology and know-how in the Chinese economy has long been rooted in the heart of China's FDI policy and remains fundamental for China's transformation to an innovative economy. This pursuit of economic upgrade and technological advancement is not illegitimate as it is common for countries to use similar policies for similar objectives at different stages of economic development. The question is whether China has done so in breach of its WTO obligations. To answer this question, this article examines China's new FDI regime and argues that while China has removed the controversial provisions in the relevant legislations, the regime leaves flexibility for China to “force” technology transfer in practice, particularly under the security review and retaliation mechanisms envisaged in the new Foreign Investment Law. It is submitted that the best way to address these outstanding challenges would be through the dispute settlement mechanism of the WTO as opposed to unilateral and confrontational approaches which have proven to be counter-productive. While WTO litigation is likely to be limited to “as applied” claims in specific cases, systemic changes may result from a series of successful “piecemeal” attacks over time. Given China's broad WTO commitments on technology transfer, we call for an increasing use of the existing rules to address any laws and practices that “force” technology transfer instead of negotiating new rules.

Book The Competitive Advantage of Regions and Nations

Download or read book The Competitive Advantage of Regions and Nations written by Boris Ricken and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of technology transfer for the competitive advantage of companies and the economic success of nations cannot be overstated. Technology is a determining element for firms and nations to increase productivity, to compete, and to prosper. In The Competitive Advantage of Regions and Nations, the authors stress that companies, investment promotion agencies, and government bodies cannot simply sit and wait until new technologies arrive in their domain. Rather, they need to manage the identification, assessment, attraction, absorption and application of new technologies. In this comprehensive book, Boris Ricken and George Malcotsis explain how technology transfer in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) projects can be systematically managed. Using some 40 case studies as illustration, they give step-by-step guidance for managers. The explanation of theory in this book, together with the frameworks and cases delivering solutions to the various challenges of technology transfer will be highly appreciated by managers of companies, investment promotion agencies, and government bodies alike. It also offers students confronted with the topic an understandable study guide.

Book Trade and Investment in China

Download or read book Trade and Investment in China written by Jim Slater and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-09-11 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China is under close scrutiny both as a market that could provide massive returns to investors and because of its potential to become the most powerful economy in Asia. This new study examines the economic relationship between China and Europe, its importance and how it is likely to evolve. The book considers the flow of trade, direct investment and technology transfer and contains case studies of manufacturing industries (automobiles, toys, watches, telecommunications) banking and insurance. The trade relationship between Europe and China is being re-evaluated by both sides and this is a valuable contribution to that process.

Book Globalization  Foreign Direct Investment and Technology Transfers

Download or read book Globalization Foreign Direct Investment and Technology Transfers written by Nagesh Kumar and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-08-29 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Nagesh Kumar and expert contributors examine and explain the emerging patterns in international technology transfers and foreign direct investment flows (FDIs) over the past two decades. They analyse the trends in internationalization of corporate activity in individual source countries, discussing outflows from both major and emerging source countries. This departs from the existing treatments of FDI as homogenous resource and allows for a more detailed prediction of future outflow patterns. Throughout, the research focuses upon the implications of new trends for developing countries. Kumar concludes by outlining the policy implications for the governments of such countries seeking to mobilize technology and FDI for their industrialization and further integration into the international community. Controversially, he cautions against excessive optimism about the potential of FDI inflows as an agent of development. This book draws together much data and information which is not readily available and provides reflections upon international business negotiations from a developing country's perspective.

Book International Joint Ventures and Internal Vs  External Technology Transfer

Download or read book International Joint Ventures and Internal Vs External Technology Transfer written by Kun Jiang and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper studies international joint ventures, where foreign direct investment is performed by a foreign and a domestic firm that together set up a new firm, the joint venture. Employing administrative data on all international joint ventures in China from 1998 to 2007 -- roughly a quarter of all international joint ventures in the world -- we find, first, that Chinese firms chosen to be partners of foreign investors tend to be larger, more productive, and more likely subsidized than other Chinese firms. Second, there is substantial technology transfer both to the joint venture and to the Chinese joint venture partner, an external, intergenerational technology transfer effect that this paper introduces. Third, with technology spillovers typically outweighing negative competition effects, joint ventures generate on net positive externalities to other Chinese firms in the same industry. Joint venture externalities are large, perhaps twice the size of wholly-owned FDI spillovers, and it is R&D-intensive firms, including the joint ventures themselves, that benefit most from these externalities. Furthermore, the positive external joint venture effect is larger if the foreign firm is from the U.S. rather than from Japan or Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan, while this effect is virtually absent in broad sectors that include economic activities for which China’s FDI policy has prohibited joint ventures.
