About this book

Monique Taylor analyses the policy rationale and institutional underpinnings of China's state-led or neomercantilist oil strategy, and its development, set against the wider context of economic transformation as the country transitions from a centrally planned to market economy.

Reviews

“Taylor’s study is a good point of departure for analysing the actions of China’s oil companies in the context of future developments in the global oil sector. … provide students of contemporary China, international relations scholars, and people with a general interest in global affairs with a good overview of the various facets of China’s rise and help them reflect on the government’s vision and goals which China’s propaganda machinery will be inclined to disseminate in the future.” (Susann Handke, China Information, Vol. 23 (3), November, 2015)

“In this book, Monique Taylor has provided a thoughtful and refreshing analysis of China’s oil industry that should be read by students, scholars and policy analysts interested in the governance of this country. The line of argument is well-founded and convincing.” (Philip Andrews-Speed, China Quarterly Review,Vol. 222, June, 2015)
