In 2001, China entered the World Trade Organisation (WTO), a watershed in the history of globalisation.

Internationally, China’s strong export industry has led to the decline of old-line industries in advanced economies. Recently China has adopted a number of technological and economic policies and practices which will have new implications for international markets.
