DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThis paper seeks to explore and explain what Chines
 e manufacturing developments in the last 35 years can inspire and challeng
 e the management studies. The paper recognises that the classical industri
 alisation model and industrial systems have brought China not only to the 
 largest manufacturing nation but also to the tipping point where its succe
 ss can destroy its achievements and even the world. The new generation of 
 industrial strategy and management theory has to learn from the Chinese ma
 nufacturing experiences and explore new type of strategic and system solut
 ions.\n\n\nPresenter's Biography:\nDr Yongjiang Shi is a University Lectur
 er in Industrial Systems in the Engineering Department of the University o
 f Cambridge and a Research Director at the Institute for Manufacturing’s
