The chapters cover a wide range of topics, from broader issues and challenges such as globalisation of Chinese enterprises and the influence of tax policy on Chinese investments to the addressing of sustainable development concerns in Chinese investment agreements. Together, they create a harmonious narrative of the growing and multifaceted role of China as a major economic power in the international economic arena [...] As a whole, in order to provide a
comprehensive analysis of the subject, the volume combines legal and international relations perspectives. As such it serves as an excellent source for legal and IR scholars, policymakers and practitioners alike, as well as others who are interested in international economic governance and contemporary China's
commercial policy in times of the growing use of economic tools for geopolitical purposes.
