Description - China's Industrial Technology by Shulin Gu

In recent years, many studies have discussed the restructuring of national innovation systems in industrially developed countries. However, little attention has been paid to issues faced by developing countries involved in similar processes of change. In China's Industrial Technology , Shulin Gu studies the transformation of the biggest industrial technology system which has ever emerged in a developing country. Offering a comprehensive review of reform policy, followed by an examination of major approaches to institutional restructuring, Shulin Gu explores the way in which China's industrial technology has responded to economic reforms. At the heart of the work is the argument that market reform and organisational change are closely interdependent. Gu outlines the interaction of the two in China and reveals the damage which may result if market reform is not accompanied by new organisational design. Analysis of these issues is drawn from first-hand experience of Chinese technology systems, supported by insights from technological innovation economics and transaction cost economics. This is a ground-breaking work of global significance.
China's Industrial Technology not only offers insights into China's possible future in the global and Asian economies, but also provides policy lessons for other developing countries and former planned economies.
