Description

Explore a new perspective on Chinese entrepreneurship with this academic study from the Routledge Contemporary China Series. This book challenges the long-held belief that equal inheritance systems act as a barrier to the growth of family-owned enterprises in China. Instead of focusing solely on economic capital, the author examines how the transfer of control affects different types of resources. Zheng provides a detailed analysis of how family patriarchs manage the transition to the next generation. The research highlights a common gap in succession planning: while many leaders focus on passing down wealth, they often overlook the transfer of human capital, such as education and leadership skills, and social capital, including professional networks. By looking beyond just money, this book offers a deeper understanding of what truly sustains a family business through generations. It is an essential read for students, academics, and professionals interested in international business, Chinese economic history, and the dynamics of family-led corporate structures.
