Abstract

This paper outlines the fundamental challenges facing policy-makers in developing economies, with specific reference the automotive industry in China, in defining and implementing policies based on the concept of sustainable development. The global vehicle manufacturers are attracted by market prospects in China as the country seeks greater integration into the world economy. It is argued that a twin-track strategy should be adopted to preserve the existing industry while nurturing the development of an alternative model, that of Micro Factory Retailing.
