It has not  however  adopted a liberal economic model. China has retained elements of statist control even though it has liberalized foreign direct investment more than any other developing country in recent years. This mode of global economic integration reveals much about Chinas state capacity and development strategy  which is based on retaining government control over critical sectors while meeting commitments made to the World Trade Organization. In Chinas Regulatory State  Roselyn Hsueh demonstrates that China only appears to be a more liberal state; even as it introduces competition and devolves economic decisionmaking  the state has selectively imposed new regulations at the sectoral level  asserting and even tightening control over industry and market development  to achieve state goals. By investigating in depth how China implemented its economic policies between 1978 and 2010  Hsueh gives the most complete picture yet of Chinas regulatory state  particularly as it has shaped the telecommunications and textiles industries. Hsueh contends that a logic of strategic value explains how the state  with its different levels of authority and maze of bureaucracies  interacts with new economic stakeholders to enhance its control in certain economic sectors while relinquishing control in others. Sectoral characteristics determine policy specifics although the organization of institutions and boom-bust cycles influence how the state reformulates old rules and creates new ones to maximize benefits and minimize costs after an initial phase of liberalization. This pathbreaking analysis of state goals  government-business relations  and methods of governance across industries in China also considers Japans  South Koreas  and Taiwans manifestly different approaches to globalization.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45648349626421,"sku":"ByrdShop_0801477433","price":35.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780801477430.jpg?v=1781716782","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/chinas-regulatory-state-a-new-strategy-for-globalization-cornell-studies-in-political-economy-9780801477430","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
