Beskrivning
Is there a distinctive Chinese model for law and economic development? In The Beijing Consensus scholars turn their collective attention to answer this basic but seemingly under-explored question as China rises higher in its global standing. Advancing debates on alternative development programs, with a particular focus on social and political contexts, this book demonstrates that essentially, no model exists. Engaging in comparative studies, the contributors create a new set of benchmarks to evaluate the conventional wisdom that the Beijing Consensus challenges and that of the Beijing Consensus itself. Has China demonstrated that the best model is in fact no model at all? Overall, this title equips the reader with an understanding of the conclusions derived from China's experience in its legal and economic development in recent decades.

Mer om författaren

Weitseng Chen received his JSD in 2007 from Yale Law School where he was a Fulbright scholar. Thereafter, he worked for Stanford University, California from 2007 to 2008 as a Hewlett Fellow of the Center on Democracy, Development and the Rule of Law, conducting research on transitional economies and rule of law reforms. Immediately before he joined the National University of Singapore in November 2011, Weitseng Chen practiced law as a New York State attorney in Davis Polk and Wardwell LLP and worked in its Hong Kong office, specializing in international capital market transactions. His recent research focuses on China's foreign direct investment and property rights transition, a China-Taiwan comparison on their rule of law transition, and the economic behaviors of ethnic foreign investors in China. Prior to his Yale education, he practiced law in Taiwan in diverse fields, including the information technology industry, public interest and international NGO affairs.

Recensioner i media

'The relationship between law and development is a question that just will not go away. This volume assembles a top-notch group of scholars to examine what China's experience can tell us. While much of the previous work on this field has been done by economists, the contributors here are intimately familiar with the details of China's legal system and offer new and stimulating insights in this terrific collection of essays.' Donald Clarke, David Weaver Research Professor of Law, George Washington University Law School
