| Summary |
"This book analyzes how China's firms in the consumer electronics (CE) sector have developed their business strategy and corporate governance during the reform process ... It is the first book to analyze the link between business strategy, corporate governance and the performance of Chinese firms, explicitly comparing state, collective, and privately owned firms. This book argues that the adaptation of Chinese enterprises to the competitive dynamics of the market is central to the on-going reform and transformation of firms in contemporary China. |
