Description

Explore the complex reality of China's role in the global economy with this deep analysis from Routledge. This book investigates whether China has truly become the workshop of the world, similar to the historical roles of Britain and the United States, or if it serves primarily as a processing segment within global production networks. Through extensive original research, the text examines the scale and scope of Chinese manufacturing and the sophistication of its exports in the international market. It provides a detailed look at China's position in the global value chain, arguing that the nation maintains a monopoly on industrial production by acting as the central processing hub for the world. This study is an essential resource for those studying the international division of labor. It offers a clear view of how China's industrial capabilities function on both a national and industrial level, making it a valuable addition to any collection regarding the Chinese economy and global trade dynamics.
