Description

This scholarly work examines the institutional drivers behind China's foreign direct investment patterns and urban development strategies. The book analyses how China's entrepreneurial approach to urban growth has shaped FDI concentration in manufacturing since the early 2000s, exploring the intricate relationships between cross-border capital flows, national policy frameworks, and local municipal responses. Through this lens, the author reveals how urban land-use policies and fiscal structures at multiple governance levels have facilitated and directed international investment into Chinese cities. The analysis bridges economics, urban planning, and institutional analysis to explain why FDI has clustered in specific Chinese manufacturing regions, offering readers a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms linking foreign investment to rapid urbanisation in contemporary China.
