Law, Compliance and Strategy in China - A Cross-Border Guide for International Business.

This open access book provides international companies with an integrated legal and strategic business framework for operating in China. Across twelve chapters in five thematic parts, it follows the full lifecycle of foreign business activity: market entry and corporate structuring, negotiation and contracting, e-commerce and data governance, employment, and dispute resolution. Drawing on primary Chinese legislation, policy, and more than eighty case studies, the book bridges the gap between academic scholarship and practitioner guides. It offers the analytical depth of the former and the operational focus of the latter, showing not only what the theory rules but also the practice. It is written for executives, in-house counsel, corporate strategists, researchers, and graduate students who need a clear and analytical guide to China's market.
