Based on the developmental state theory, an East Asian developmental state model is set up as a benchmark. The thesis uses an empirical analysis of the auto industry to highlight the performance outcome of China?s development strategy. The author confirms that China has evolved into a developmental state similar in its core characteristics to the three leading East Asian states. The model of development in China, however, is an innovative combination of factors from the developmental states, the legacies of the past command economy as well as of the adopted market economy mechanism including international capital flows. 410 0$aHohenheimer volkswirtschaftliche Schriften ;$vBand 60. 606 $aAutomobile industry and trade$zChina 606 $aIndustrial policy$zChina$vCase studies 607 $aChina$xEconomic policy$y2000- 610 $aAnalysis 610 $aAuto Industry 610 $aAutomotive 610 $aAutomotive Industry 610 $aChina 610 $aDevelopmental 610 $aEconomic Development 610 $aEmpirical 610 $aIndustry 610 $aKraftfahrzeugindustrie 610 $aMeier 610 $aState? 610 $aWirtschaftsentwicklung 615 0$aAutomobile industry and trade 615 0$aIndustrial policy 676 $a338.951 700 $aMeier$b Nicola$f1977-$01425074 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910297053603321 996 $aChina - the New Developmental State$93555206 997 $aUNINA
