Narrative of Case Companies

Chapter 3 in Large Chinese State-Owned Enterprises, 2008, pp 76-100 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This chapter and Chapters 4 and 5 present empirical data obtained from the six companies and attempt to answer the key research question: What were case companies’ corporatization processes, and within the context of institutional change, how were their strategies formulated and implemented? A distinction between narrative and analysis is made to solve the problem of handling the huge amount of data obtained from the field study. In this chapter data will be presented from a non-judgemental perspective that emphasizes narrative rather than analysis. In Chapters 4 and 5 the reverse occurs and the emphasis is on analysis and interpretation.
