Review Chinese Economic Development / Routledge:

This book outlines and analyzes the economic development of China between 1949 and 2007. Rather than being narrowly economic, the book addresses many of the broader aspects of development, including literacy, morality, demographics and the environment. The distinctive features of this book are its sweep and that it does not shy away from controversial issues. For example, there is no question that aspects of Maoism were disastrous but Bramall argues that there was another side to the whole programme. More recently, the current system of government has presided over three decades of very rapid economic growth. However, the author shows that this growth has come at a price. Bramall makes it clear that unless radical change takes place, Chinese growth will not be sustainable. This large, comprehensive text is relevant to all those studying the economic history of China as well as its contemporary economy. It is also useful more generally for students and researchers in the fields of international and development economics.

Review Edward Elgar Publishing  / International Handbook on Privatization Creator: David Saal
Publication date: 2003-09
Dewey code: 338.925
List Price: $330.00
Price: $177.55

Review International Handbook on Privatization / Edward Elgar Publishing:

Privatization has dominated industrial restructuring programmes since the 1980s and continues to do so. This handbook considers all aspects of this key issue, including the theory of privatization; privatization in transition, developed and developing economies; and the economic regulation of privatized industries. The studies in this volume, introduced by international experts in the field, present evidence of the scope and effects of privatization, and consequently provide the basis for improving both policy formulation and implementation. However, they also emphasize that privatization is not an end in itself. It is argued that for privatization to be worthwhile and for lasting economic efficiency gains to be achieved, supporting reforms must accompany most privatization programmes, particularly in the arenas of corporate governance and capital markets, product market competition and state regulatory processes. Furthermore, several contributors demonstrate that the degree to which ownership and market liberalization can be usefully separated and whether privatization without either competition or effective regulation is worthwhile, remain controversial issues.

Review The Changing Face of Chinese Management (Working in Asia) / Routledge:

Chinese management has experienced a dramatic change in recent years. However, established ideas about Chinese management are often oversimplified or outdated. This book provides a much-needed, realistic and up-to-date portrait of Chinese business today and of how it has changed over the last decade. It is a portrait that reveals an intriguing mixture of the old and the new, for while certain features can be traced deep into China's past, others have changed beyond recognition. New forms of enterprise and new ways of conducting business have emerged. Jie Tang and Anthony Ward capture this complexity and present it in an accessible and wholly user-friendly format. Alongside a discussion of the social and economic forces shaping management, Jie Tang and Anthony Ward provide a wide variety of interview material and case studies, much drawn from their own extensive interviews with managers and from observations within Chinese enterprises. The result is a fresh insight into the mind of the Chinese manager. With China representing a huge economy, and recently joining the World Trade Organisation, the country is now a topic of constant interest in the business world. This book will be of enormous practical help to practitioners and students alike.
