Chinese business firms and their networks of personal and business relationships, are becoming increasingly important players in the global economy. This book examines the global and regional operations of Chinese business firms and considers their implications for the management and organization of these firms, aided by specific case studies. Written by leading researchers in this field, Globalization of Chinese Business Firms is a valuable and timely contribution to the study of Asian business systems.

Henry Wai-chung Yeung is Assistant Professor and Kris Olds is Lecturer, both in the Department of Geography at National University of Singapore.
