Changing Lanes in China

Beschreibung

The primary purpose of the book is to understand how China has used foreign investment to promote local development. It uses the case studies of five Chinese regions that have joint venture projects in the auto industry. The analysis covers two decades, both before and after Chinese accession to the World Trade Organization, and is based on hundreds of interviews. The auto industry provides a window into the strategies of the global multinationals that seek access to the vast Chinese market - companies such as Volkswagen, General Motors, and Honda.
