The Oxford Handbook of China Innovation Summary

The Oxford Handbook of China Innovation by Xiaolan Fu (Professor of Technology and International Development, Professor of Technology and International Development, University of Oxford)

Rising from a position of relative poverty in 1980, China is now the world's second-largest economy and a leader in many fields of innovation. Understanding China's new status as a technologically advanced world power and the means by which it has reached that position will be critical to policy-makers and business leaders in the years ahead. The Oxford Handbook of China Innovation provides a contemporary and authoritative view of the role of innovation in China's extraordinary emergence. The Handbook brings together over sixty experts from universities and research institutions worldwide to describe and analyze this phenomenon with criticism, policy discussion, and views about further development. The volume focuses on the microeconomic factors in China's growth and the way in which the steady drive for innovation has been a critical force. Chapters cover a wide scope of topics including China's development policies, the place of innovation in national priorities, the components of the national innovation system, and the resources required for their effective deployment. The issue of foreign influence is also addressed, including the evolution of policy towards inward foreign direct investment and knowledge transfer and China's goals for outward foreign direct investment. As China emerges as a contender for global leadership, the Handbook provides a data-driven, accessible, and comprehensive foundation to understand and predict the challenges ahead.

The Oxford Handbook of China Innovation Reviews

China has gone from a relatively poor and isolated economy with a defective economic model to a powerhouse in a matter of four decades. This Handbook will help readers understand how that happened. In applying multiple lenses to understanding this complex journey, one learns about the role of the state and the private sectors, the key mindsets and policy frameworks, and China's experimental approach to finding pathways to progress in the absence of clear roadmaps. Readers will be left with little doubt that the China case is important, not only for its scale, but for real innovation in finding ways to accelerate innovation processes. As the world faces important challenges, in which accelerated innovation is a critical capability, the China experience covered in this volume holds important lessons for a wide range of developed and emerging economies. * Michael Spence, Nobel Laureate and William R. Berkley Professor in Economics and Business, New York University *
At the core of the rise of China has been the formation of a strong national innovation system. In this handbook on innovation in China, sixty scholars from within and outside China analyze, how the system has been shaped by combining markets with planning, national priorities with openness and central decision-making with regional strategies. Contributions also capture important new developments in China's innovation system aiming at environmental sustainability and the promotion of digital technologies, including artificial intelligence. The handbook is a must-read for scholars, businessmen and policy makers who want to understand the history and future of China and its role in the world. * Bengt Ake Bertil Lundvall, Professor Emeritus, Department of Business and Management, Aalborg University *
