Opis

A timely evaluation of rapidly globalizing governance mechanisms in China and Japan. This book looks at how corporate governance practices in these countries are adapting to Anglo-American practices, but argues that these adaptations are selective, and both countries continue to retain their own local corporate governance practices in some areas.
