The Chinese and Indian Corporate Economies: A Comparative History of their Search for Economic Renaissance and Globalization

This book examines the economic growth of China and India, and takes a long historical view, combining economic history with an analysis of the current situation. It considers the nature of capitalism in the two countries, their institutional structures, legal frameworks, state industrial strategies, and their different approaches to state-owned enterprises and the encouragement of entrepreneurs and investors. It thereby provides a comprehensive overview of the strategic factors driving growth in both countries. It shows that growth is not driven by an imitation of Western models, and concludes by assessing the prospects for continued growth in future in both China and India.
