Book Synopsis The History of Corporate Ownership in China by : Elisabeth Köll

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the emergence of corporate ownership in China from the final decades of the Qing empire in the late 19th century to the early Republican period in the 1910s and 1920s. By analyzing the actual process of incorporation, the development of the legal and financial environment, in particular the role of the state, we ask whether the top-down approach, in which the central government established a legal framework for corporate enterprise based on Western models and the assumption that it would work as it did for Western firms and markets, was a viable approach to the modernization of a financial system traditionally dominated by family businesses and economic state patronage. Using business records from turn-of-the-century Chinese corporate companies, this paper argues that the government's top-down approach, while clearly well-intentioned, created a framework which only insufficiently promoted the system of corporate capitalism in pre-war China.
Book Synopsis A History of Corporate Governance around the World by : Randall K. Morck

This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many Americans, capitalism is a dynamic engine of prosperity that rewards the bold, the daring, and the hardworking. But to many outside the United States, capitalism seems like an initiative that serves only to concentrate power and wealth in the hands of a few hereditary oligarchies. As A History of Corporate Governance around the World shows, neither conception is wrong. In this volume, some of the brightest minds in the field of economics present new empirical research that suggests that each side of the debate has something to offer the other. Free enterprise and well-developed financial systems are proven to produce growth in those countries that have them. But research also suggests that in some other capitalist countries, arrangements truly do concentrate corporate ownership in the hands of a few wealthy families. A History of Corporate Governance around the World provides historical studies of the patterns of corporate governance in several countries-including the large industrial economies of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States; larger developing economies like China and India; and alternative models like those of the Netherlands and Sweden.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Future. The Chinese legal and institutional environments have been strengthened greatly in recent years including the introduction of laws pertaining to information disclosure. Finally the paper notes that due to the important social role of SOE's and the ruling party's traditional opposition to private property rights, the State may find it hard to give up full control. In this way, conflicting interests are likely to persist in Chinese listed companies and provide a significant barrier to implementing good governance practices.
Book Synopsis Working in the Global Production Era by : Fangfang Wen
Download or read book Working in the Global Production Era written by Fangfang Wen and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, I examine whether there exists a connection between corporation ownership origins and labor conditions in China. The study is intended to answer the question of whether corporation ownership origins affect labor conditions for Chinese workers. Instead of distinguishing the corporations as state or privately owned entities, I sort them according to the country of origin and compare their performance and effect on the global enonomy with respect to labor rights, treatment, and the condition of the labor force within those corporations. Rather than solely describing the labor conditions affected by the global economy, I approach the issue through how the country origins of corporations influence their treatment of workers. The empirical evidence of this study comes from an examination of corporate codes of conduct and employment policies proposed by leading electronic manufacturing corporations in China. Additionally, I also include three case studies in order to explore the real labor conditions and its connection with corporation ownership origins in China. My analysis of both corporate codes of conduct and case studies of three factories supports the idea that national, institutional and ideological structure remains the deciding factor, and thus corporation ownership origins are related to labor condition. The home countries of corporations exert influence on the corporations' treatment of labor rights and shape their behavior in practicing their corresponding policies.
Book Synopsis Governing Enterprises in China by : Zhang Cheng
Download or read book Governing Enterprises in China written by Zhang Cheng and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-06-24 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the nature of the marketization of corporate boards following the introduction of the split share reform, corporate board and shareholder relations, corporate performance, and risk-taking conduct in China. The chapters cover topics such as determinants of corporate board size and independence, corporate risk-taking conduct under different controlling shareholder types. The book deepens our understanding of corporate governance mechanisms as most previous studies have limited their findings using mainstream perspectives grounded on neoclassical theory. It outlines that China’s corporate board composition is determined by the board’s scope of operation, monitoring, bargaining power, and other governance mechanisms and regulations. It also offers a comparison between China’s experience with other economies in general and other transition economies in particular. As such, the book represents an essential overview of the current concerns regarding corporate governance in China. It is of great interest to legal researchers, policymakers, and legal practitioners working with business investments in China.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much is written about the various efforts aimed at reforming China’s state-owned enterprises. But in all this literature the Chinese government’s determined effort to use the equity capital markets as a tool of enterprise reform has been virtually ignored. The fact is that during the past decade this has been, and will continue to be, the principal thrust with regard to the reform of state-owned enterprises. On-again, off-again, noises about bankruptcy, M&A solutions and asset management companies are only sideshows in the process. Carl E.

Book Synopsis Corporate Social Responsibility in Contemporary China by : Jingchen Zhao
Download or read book Corporate Social Responsibility in Contemporary China written by Jingchen Zhao and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China's recent economic transformation and integration into the world economy has coincided with increasing pressure for corporate law reform to make corporate social responsibility (CSR) integral to business and management strategy in China. This timely book critically analyses contemporary notions of CSR in China, discussing theory and practice alongside legal responses in this emerging field. Jingchen Zhao uniquely combines the history, traditions and social policies of China with Chinese law, explaining the significance of path dependence in China. He presents an in-depth debate on the difficulties involved in transplanting developed legal principles directly into Chinese society, and takes a detailed look at the CSR provisions in Chinese company law which aimed to put social and environmental concerns onto the corporate agenda. He suggests how these laws could be more effectively and efficiently enforced with reference to UK law, and explores specific issues including: * Chinese Company Law 2006 * the 'Harmonious Society' in China * the 2008 Financial Crisis and its impact on the Chinese economy * recent corporate scandals including the Sanlu Baby Milk scandal, the Wenchuan earthquake and CSR donations, the Beijing Olympic Games and CSR, and the Fujia chemical plant. This book will prove an enlightening read for academics and practitioners in the fields of law, business and management interested in CSR and the law in contemporary China.

Book Synopsis How China Became Capitalist by : R. Coase
Download or read book How China Became Capitalist written by R. Coase and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-30 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How China Became Capitalist details the extraordinary, and often unanticipated, journey that China has taken over the past thirty five years in transforming itself from a closed agrarian socialist economy to an indomitable economic force in the international arena. The authors revitalise the debate around the rise of the Chinese economy through the use of primary sources, persuasively arguing that the reforms implemented by the Chinese leaders did not represent a concerted attempt to create a capitalist economy, and that it was 'marginal revolutions' that introduced the market and entrepreneurship back to China. Lessons from the West were guided by the traditional Chinese principle of 'seeking truth from facts'. By turning to capitalism, China re-embraced her own cultural roots. How China Became Capitalist challenges received wisdom about the future of the Chinese economy, warning that while China has enormous potential for further growth, the future is clouded by the government's monopoly of ideas and power. Coase and Wang argue that the development of a market for ideas which has a long and revered tradition in China would be integral in bringing about the Chinese dream of social harmony.
