The Political Economy of Industrial Policy in China: The Case of Aircraft Manufacturing

Andrea Goldstein

Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies, 2006, vol. 4, issue 3, 259-273

Abstract: This paper focuses on China's efforts to build a world-class aircraft manufacturing industry. In the first half of the 1990s, the potential of the Chinese industry to mount a competitive challenge to Western aircraft builders was largely discounted. Nowadays, the threat is taken more seriously. The growth in the Chinese air transport market has reinforced the bargaining power of national aircraft producers and authorities are giving priority to building science and technology capacity in this area. Progress in creating military/civilian synergies has proven much more modest and the overall industry still lacks effective coordination.
