Major concepts such as guanxi, xinyong and gangqing, exploring the nature of trust, relationships and sentiments in Chinese business networks, are re-examined. A significant amount of literature has been devoted to the study of Chinese business, and it largely falls into two broad schools: the culturalist approach, arguing for an essentialist formulation to explain success and the market approach, suggesting that there is nothing inherently unique about Chinese business. This book critiques both these approaches and argues, based on primary data collected in various countries, and with case studies of a large number of Chinese businesses, that another approach, the institutional embedded approach, provides a better explanation for the success, and failure of Chinese business and Chinese business networks. 000704792 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000704792 650_0 $$aBusiness networks$$zChina. 000704792 650_0 $$aIndustrial sociology$$zChina. 000704792 650_0 $$aCorporate culture$$zChina. 000704792 7001_ $$aTong, Chee Kiong,$$eeditor. 000704792 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tChinese business$$z9789814451857$$w(OCoLC)861320461 000704792 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000704792 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-981-4451-85-7$$zOnline Access 000704792 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:704792$$pGLOBAL_SET 000704792 980__ $$aEBOOK 000704792 980__ $$aBIB 000704792 982__ $$aEbook 000704792 983__ $$aOnline 000704792 994__ $$a92$$bISE
