Evolving Property Rights and Shifting Educational Forms: Evidence from Joint Venture Buyouts following China's WTO Ascension
The George Washington University holds a public talk on evolving property rights and shifts in educational reforms.
When:
November 4, 2011 12:30pm to 1:45pm
Where
Dr. Kamal will discuss the choices faced by Sino-foreign joint venture organizations following China's WTO accession. This is significant because WTO accession has reduced incentives for joint ventures while reducing constraints on wholly owned foreign subsidiaries. Concomitant with these changes has been the creation of a more liberal investment environment for indigenous investors. Dr. Kamal will analyze the current situation in terms of property rights theory.
Fariha Kamal is an economist at the Center for Economic Studies at the U.S. Census Bureau. Her research interests include international trade and investment, economic geography, and development economics. Her current research investigates the role of foreign direct investment, agglomeration economies, and market access in the process of industrial development. Dr. Kamal earned her Ph.D. in Economics from Syracuse University. She holds a M.B.A. from Clark University and a B.A. in Economics from Mount Holyoke College.
