According to Krug (economics of governance, Erasmus U., the Netherlands) and Hendrischke (Chinese studies, U. of New South Wales, Australia) the nine papers in this volume reveal what is new in
the emerging Chinese business system--that is, those characteristics and outcomes that have not been anticipated by theories on economic development, comparative business systems, or economic
transformation. Individual papers discuss the relationship between political governance and corporate governance, institutional change in foreign banks in Shanghai, the rise of China's
information and communication technology industry, the emerging tax regime, culture and local economic development, and shifting organizational forms. Annotation 穢2007 Book News, Inc.,
