Abstract:

Governments in many countries, including the United States, Australia and Canada, have been highly suspicious of the political motives of Chinese business firms seeking to invest in resource industries and infrastructure development overseas. This article uses the case of the Chinese hi-tech firm, Huawei Technologies, to demonstrate the tendency of the United States and other governments to frame their analysis based on unreliable or biased sources and outdated understanding of the Chinese legal and corporate environment. The inevitable results of such misguided framing will be schizophrenic foreign policy decisions, increased international tensions, higher costs for consumers, and retaliation by the Chinese government against international firms doing business in China.
