Description

Explore the complex relationship between capital flows and urban development in one of the world's most dynamic economies. This book from Routledge provides an institutional explanation of why foreign direct investment (FDI) has concentrated so heavily within China's manufacturing sector since the start of the 21st century. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of China's entrepreneurial urban growth strategy. The text examines how national political and fiscal structures motivate local development, and how municipalities use urban land use to facilitate economic expansion. By analyzing the connections between cross-border capital, national regulations, and local government responses, this work offers a detailed look at the mechanics of modern Chinese economic growth. This resource is an essential read for students and professionals interested in the intersection of sociology, economics, and urban planning. It provides a clear framework for understanding how local actions and national policies combine to shape the landscape of international investment and city development in China.
