China's WTO Accession Reassessed

China's accession to the World Trade Organisation in 2001 was a highly significant event both for China and for the wider world. This book argues that, although at the time some people doubted the likely benefits, China's WTO accession has been highly successful. It discusses how China has abided by WTO terms and how membership has contributed to China's reform, showing how China's WTO membership has been a great stimulus both for China's economy and the world economy. The book considers the subject from a range of perspectives, drawing out lessons for China's future reform and development, and its relations with the rest of the world, emphasising the need to maintain a win-win approach.
