Is China growing at 3% or 8%? Is the Chinese consumer going to save the world? Are state-owned enterprises national champions or zombies? Have we reached the end of \"Cheap China\"? Can China innovate? Is business still dominated by personal connections? Are markets or the state in control? Does Chinese culture impede or support organisational effectiveness? Are Chinese dragons at your door? Will the finance and property sectors implode? Is the Chinese model sustainable, or will it end in tears?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn all these issues there is ill-informed \"noise\", and an abundance of partisan interpretations. The purpose of \u003cem\u003eUnderstanding a Changing China\u003c\/em\u003e, therefore, is to provide an even-handed analysis of the key issues that will shape the threats and opportunities arising from China’s development in the next decade. It cannot resolve the competing claims made. However, it does provide the reader with the ideas and the sources of evidence needed to understand and to make well thought-out judgements as China continues to evolve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47608222744812,"sku":"9781138203747","price":376.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781138203747-understanding-a-changing-china.jpg?v=1778190847","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/understanding-a-changing-china-by-howard-davies-9781138203747","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
