The impact of Confucian culture, excessive marketization, and the ongoing institutional supervision by the transitional Chinese government on family businesses in China is profound, setting them apart from other economies. China boasts a rich historical legacy, deeply rooted in patriarchal values and strong family-centered traditions. This comprehensive volume delves into the social foundations and historical legacies of families, business families, and family businesses in China. It begins by providing an overview of households, families, and clans in ancient China, highlighting their economic, social, and cultural functions. It then explores the unique characteristics of the family system in ancient China, distinguishing it from Western societies. The book further discusses the evolution of the family system and the rise of family businesses before the establishment of the People's Republic of China in 1949. Finally, it assesses the family system before and after the "Open-up and Reform" in 1978, offering a comprehensive perspective on the development of family firms in China. This interdisciplinary work, incorporating sociological, anthropological, and institutional contexts relevant to China, provides researchers with a cutting-edge understanding of the complexities and dynamics shaping family businesses in this unique cultural context.
