Description

China's accession to the World Trade Organization marked a major milestone in the country's return to the international economic regime. However, although much research has been carried out into the economic impact of China's WTO membership, Chinese policy making processes have in the main been ignored. The Politics of China's Accession to the World Trade Organization tackles this omission by providing an "inside" look at Chinese WTO accession negotiations and establishing a systematic political economy model in analyzing Beijing's decision making mechanisms. Grounded on a series of interviews with Chinese government officials directly involved in the policymaking process, the book argues that China's WTO policy making is a state-led, leadership driven, and top-down process. Feng explores how China's determined political elite partly bypassed and partly restructured a largely reluctant and resistant bureaucracy, under constant pressure from an increasingly globalized international.
