This book challenges the simplistic notion that Chinese corporations solely serve the goals of the Communist Party. It argues that to understand these corporations, we must trace their dynamic evolution within a unique socio-political ecosystem. Vivid case studies highlight the peculiar hybrid structures and networks that are crucial for corporate success in the Chinese context. By examining the reciprocal impacts between Chinese corporations and their environment, Colin S. C. Hawes reveals how the political adaptations of corporations have posed significant obstacles to their international expansion and exacerbated China's environmental crisis.

Adopting an interdisciplinary approach that draws insights from behavioral economics, science, and Chinese philosophy, the book proposes innovative solutions to the detrimental impacts of Chinese corporations. It makes a compelling case for redirecting the vital energy of corporations and government officials toward more productive and sustainable directions.

This book offers a comprehensive and nuanced understanding of Chinese corporations, challenging the prevailing narratives and providing valuable insights for policymakers, business executives, and scholars alike. It is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complex dynamics of China's economic and political landscape.
