China, Trust, and Digital Supply Chains: A Critical Reflection on Blockchain Technologies in China and the Global Arena
Blockchain technologies have gained significant attention in China and the global landscape, with their adoption shaping the future of various industries. In this book, we delve into the critical reflection on blockchain technologies in China and their global implications.
Approaching blockchain technology adoption and development on China's terms is crucial for policymakers and others to understand the nuances of this transformative technology. The work challenges the prevailing "trust trope" that dominates discussions about blockchain's application. It argues that blockchain is not about trust but rather about enabling intensified cross-border economic interactions without the assumption of trust.
China's re-imagining of the 21st-century global order is driven by the desire to promote cross-border economic interactions without relying on traditional trust mechanisms. Blockchain technology plays a pivotal role in making this vision a reality by providing a secure and decentralized platform for transactions and data exchange.
The book also explores the paradox of technological decentralization being embraced by a centralist polity. It examines how blockchain technology is being used by China to globalize its digital currency initiative, highlighting its critical condition for success. Additionally, it emphasizes the need for governance institutions that are multilateral in nature to reflect the multi-polar nature of decentralized information systems with domestic and cross-border permutations.
This book offers valuable insights to readers interested in political economy, public policy, blockchain technology, and Chinese studies. It provides a comprehensive examination of blockchain technologies in China and their global impact, shedding light on the challenges and opportunities they present. By understanding China's approach to blockchain, policymakers and stakeholders can better navigate the complex landscape of this transformative technology.
