This edited book is scheduled as volume 17 of International Finance Review
(IFR), an annual book series. IFR publishes theme-oriented edited volumes on
various issues in international finance, including global dimensions of
financial economics, accounting and strategy. IFR is indexed by AERES (France),
EconLit, Scopus, ProQuest, EBSCO, Thomson Reuters' Book Citation Index, and
others.
ABOUT THE NEW VOLUME:
Despite the broad acceptance of the market paradigm in mainstream economics and
finance, there remains an ongoing debate pertaining to the proper role of
government in addressing market failures and imperfections. Conversely,
state-directed command economies such as China's have transitioned to a market
economy, but remain under significant central control and influence. In China,
the role of government is still pervasive, from state-owned or partially
privatized firms, to regulation of the financial sector, to supervision through
political and legal institutions. The emergence of China as a global economic
power provides added interest to the questions of how state-based Chinese firms
and markets operate and how they behave differently from those of market-based
industrial economies.
In this volume, we welcome original manuscripts on a variety of issues relating
to the political economy of Chinese finance, including (but not limited to):
o The pattern of government ownership and control of Chinese firms
o The role of government in corporate governance of industrial and financial
firms
o The interaction of culture, law and institutions in Chinese governance
systems
o Corporate social responsibility, stakeholders and sustainable growth
o The effect of political connections on corporate performance and society
o Privatization, IPOs, exchange listing and firm valuation
o The role of government in banking and financial markets
o Practice of corporate risk management and insurance
o Foreign-exchange policy and its effect on firms and markets
o Foreign direct and portfolio investments in China
o International investments and operations of Chinese firms
o Chinese economic relations with the US and other countries
