China 2020

China 2020 describes various tectonic social and political battles going on within China. Michael A. Santoro strongly believes that Western businesses can (and should) influence these developments.

Michael A. Santoro is Associate Professor of Business Ethics at the Rutgers Business School. He is the author of Profits and Principles: Global Capitalism and Human Rights in China, also from Cornell.

In Santoro's path-breaking book, his declaration that 'Westerm business is on the wrong side of history' is just one of the more startling observations and factual revelations which await his readers. Written at a time of flux in China's commercial and political relations with the international community, it is extraordinarily prescient and well-timed.... This is a book for the intelligent public, for businessmen, government officials and scholars. In its easy, fluent yet forensically argued prose, it has an appealingly economical and graphic style. It is also the product of considerable foresight, wisdom and China expertise. It represents both a practical and theoretical contribution to the field of business and ethics.

Doug Guthrie, Stern School of Business, New York University:

In this great book, Michael A. Santoro adds in significant and important ways to the dialogue over the economic reforms in China and how these reforms give rise to many complexities in the areas of politics and human rights.
