Political scientist's upcoming book on China cited in Economist

Of 42 mainland Chinese companies in the Fortune 500 list in 2010, all but three were owned by the government. Since the global financial crisis, the Chinese government has been widely accused of twisting rules in favor of its state-owned or, sometimes, private-sector favorites. In a forthcoming book, China's Regulatory State: A New Strategy for Globalization, Temple political scientist Roselyn Hsueh says China's strategy of "economy-wide market liberalization and sector-specific reregulation" has enabled the country to "retain an upper hand over foreign forces even in a more liberal environment."
