Biography

Fanqi Lin is a PhD Student in Development Economics at SOAS - University of London.

Her research investigates the variations across successful Chinese automotive firms and the eco-systems where they interact with industrial policy and the central and local government. These successful cases will be used to inform the broader narratives of country-level success in the development of the NEV (New energy vehicle) industry and the role of the central state and local state in the process.

The purpose of her study is to provide implications on the state-business relations of late industrialized countries and the role acted by the state in cultivating and breeding up emerging industries.

Research interests

  • Late industrialization
  • Institution and economic development
  • China
