Submit your work: <http://www.chinagoesglobal.org/conference/paper-submission> http://www.chinagoesglobal.org/conference/paper-submission The rise of China is nothing less than spectacular, lifting millions of people out of poverty, modernizing the economy, and building a world class infrastructure. At the same time, China has built a network of economic and political links via the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and has developed plans to become a world leader in key technological areas, dubbed the Made in China 2025. At the same time, the emergence of China as an economic power has created uncertainties regarding global governance while its state-led development model has challenged orthodox thinking regarding the role of the state. We seek to understand the globalization of China's political economy through research from a multi-disciplinary (business, economics, politics, etc.), multi-method (qualitative/quantitative) and multi-level analyses (people, firms, industries, regions, global). Best papers from past conferences have been published as Special Issues and Edited Books in the past. See, for example: China's Belt and Road Initiative (Palgrave, 2018) https://www.palgrave.com/gp/book/9783319754345 Please submit your paper through our online submission system no later than March 15, 2020.
