Since October 1971， when the UN Resolution 2758 restored all its rights to the People’s Republic of China， the UN and China have worked closely together on world peace and economic development in China and around the world。 In 50 years， China has experienced remarkable economic and social transformations， rising to become the world’s second-largest economy and an upper-middle-income country in a single generation。 China’s success for the past 50 years is profound and multi-faceted。

At this time， on the 50th anniversary of China in the UN， the whole world is striving to recover from the impact of COVID-19 pandemic and aspire to “build back better” in this Decade of Action to achieve the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda。 China’s role in the UN has become even more critical as a key driver for global economic growth and as a major contributor to the realization of Sustainable Development Goals around the world。

More Information

The internationalization of Chinese enterprises is one of the most notable aspects of economic globalization in the 21st century。 Despite the 2008 financial crisis and weak global outbound investment， under the “go global“ initiative， Chinese outbound investment has gone from strength to strength， while also diversifying in terms of investment modalities， destinations， and industries。 However， growing anti-globalization sentiment in some countries has also created new challenges for Chinese firms expanding internationally。

Drawing on nearly 3000 data samples， using both quantitative and qualitative research methods， this book presents unique insights into the features and patterns of Chinese enterprises’ globalization。 The analysis provides a useful reference for enterprises that have already gone global and those that plan to。 In particular， this book investigates challenges confronted by Chinese companies when doing business in foreign countries。 It summarizes research covering three angles， namely： the current situation， causation analysis and corresponding solutions， and recommendations for firms， government agencies and other institutions。

This book provides a comprehensive overview to help readers to grasp the broad picture of the international expansion of Chinese enterprises。 It has important reference value for enterprises to help devise foreign investment strategy， seize opportunities， and navigate challenges in the course of globalization。

More Information

This book offers the most comprehensive， up-to-date assessment of China’s domestic and international migration。 Restructuring economic development requires large numbers of educated and skilled talents， but this effort comes at a time when the size of China’s domestic workforce is shrinking。 In response， both national and regional governments in China have been keen to encourage overseas Chinese talents and professionals to return to the country。 Meanwhile， the Chinese government has initiated a number of policies to attract international highly-skilled talents and enhance the country’s competitiveness， and some Chinese policies have started attracting foreign talents， who are coming to the country to work， and even to stay。 Since Chinese policies， mechanisms， and administration efforts to attract and retain skilled domestic or overseas talents are helping to reshape China’s economy and are significantly affecting the cooperation on migration and talent mobility， these aspects， in addition to being of scholarly and research interest， hold considerable commercial potential。
