Abstract

States that, although it differs from that practised in the West, moral consideration is a key factor in making strategic moves for business people in Chinese society. Substantiates this claim based on evidence from business history in China, overseas Chinese business practice and Chinese experiences today. Then, deliberates on the management implications of this phenomenon for people who want to do business with Chinese and in China.
