The Globalisation of Chinese Business Firms Reviews

'...a book on the operation of overseas Chinese business firms is long overdue and this collection goes some way along the road of identifying the distinctive feature that lie behind the success of overseas Chinese business enterprises...The collection is a welcome and extremely useful contribution to an important new research area in economic geography - that of the identification and conceptualisation of cultural, historical and organisational differences in the ways in which capitalism operates in different parts of the world [Crouch and Streeck, 1997: 1-17].' - John R. Bryson, The University of Birmingham, The Service Industries Journal
