Ltd. The resulting attention showed the information and communications technology (ICT) firm entwined with China's political-economic transformation. But the question remained: why does Huawei matter? Yun Wen uses the Huawei story as a microcosm to understand China's evolving digital economy and the global rise of the nation's corporate power. Rejecting the idea of the transnational corporation as a static institution, she explains Huawei's formation and restructuring as a historical process replete with contradictions and complex consequences. She places Huawei within the international political economic framework to capture the dynamics of power structure and social relations underlying corporate China's globalization. As she explores the contradictions of Huawei's development, she also shows the ICT firm's complicated interactions with other political-economic forces\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Recommended.\" --\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"With \u003ci\u003eThe Huawei Model\u003c\/i\u003e, Yun Wen has written a superb book on the complex relationship between Huawei and China as well as the implications of their simultaneous rises, albeit in different roles, with regard to the information and communications technology (ICT) industry and geopolitics.\" --\u003ci\u003eChinese Journal of Communication\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"Yun Wen's book \u003ci\u003eThe Huawei Model\u003c\/i\u003e provides a detailed and useful account of the evolution and global expansion of Huawei Technologies.\" --\u003ci\u003eChina Quarterly\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Illustrations\u003cbr\u003e Abbreviations\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgments\u003cbr\u003e Introduction {Introductions and conclusions don’t typically have chapter numbers}\u003cbr\u003e Chapter 1.
