A Close Look At The Driving Forces Of The Sino-Foreign International Joint Ventures

Abstract

The current study employs measures developed for examining Sino-American international joint ventures (IJV) driving forces in transitional economies.  This research reports some significant differences of the IJV factors existing between mature economies and transitional economies. This study also proposes key driving forces to inform a Sino-American IJV in the Chinese context.  In addition, the current study explores the degree to which the above factors affect Sino-American IJV establishment in the context of contemporary Chinese conditions.
