民营企业的政府关系和家庭关系研究

Government Guanxi and Family Guanxi in Chinese Private Enterprises

文章针对民营企业中"红帽子"企业不断减少而家族企业日益增多的现象,运用源自于传统文化、包含政府和家庭两个重要组成部分的关系概念来研究民营企业公司治理模式的变化。尽管政府关系和家庭关系在民营企业的发展过程中都发挥着重要作用,但是政府关系与家庭关系对公司治理有着不同影响。文章的核心论点是民营企业中的政府关系正在被家庭关系所取代,其实证分析以浙江省宁波市296家民营企业调查数据为依据。

During the past three decades, there have been a decline in ＇red-hat＇ enterprises and an increase in family business among Chinese private enterprises. This paper employs the concept of Guanxi, which stems from traditional culture and involves two important components--government and family, to investigate the changing patterns of corporate governance in private enterprises. While both government and family Guanxi have played an important role in the development of Chinese private enterprises, there is a distinction between government and family Guanxi within private enterprises in terms of corporate governance. The core argument of this paper is that family Guanxi is replacing government Guanxi within private enterprises. The empirical study of this paper is based on a survey conducted in 2006 over 296 private enterprises in Ningbo China.
