Funded Activity Summary

The political-economy of Australia-China relations. This project will analyse the bilateral economic relationship between Australia and China. The principal focus will be on how economic relations have been conditioned by distinctive patterns of economic and political organisation in each country. The approach will draw on and extend the Varieties of Capitalism literature to provide a detailed analysis of the institutional features of the Chinese and Australian economies, and how these institutions condition the economic relationship between the two. By analysing the different policymaking traditions and business structures the project aims to explain the challenges facing Australia-China economic ties, particularly over the minerals industry, foreign investment and free trade agreement negotiations.
