Abstract
Manufacturing is absolutely booming in China, which has become a prime target for direct foreign investment. However, manufacturing in China does not always operate the way that Westerners expect it to. In this article, we examine China's manufacturing operations in light of the influence of the country's recent economic and social history, the diversity of its regions, and its national culture. We conclude that while Chinese manufacturing has issues to face and obstacles to overcome, things will only continue to improve, making China even more of a major player in the global manufacturing scene.
