| Popis: | 106 Ensuing economic reform, China’s state-owned enterprises (SOEs) have steadily devolved into a collusion course; a state in which multiple actors collude with SOEs to extract state-owned assets. While Zengke He’s collusion model provides a general description of these actors, the extent of collusion participation remains ill-defined under Xi Jingping’s anticorruption reforms (He, 2000). The critical case study presented in this thesis challenges He’s model and its participants, while redefining how multi-actor collusion pervades corruption within China’s SOEs. By accumulating case-level corruption data from judicial, state and media-level sources, the research examines eighteen SOE corruption cases within the petroleum, telecommunications and electric-utilities industries. The empirical findings acknowledge omissions in Zengke He’s model, revealing collusive networks involving SOE actors and private-sector, family-business, intra-SOE, political-regional and political-national actors. As the main contribution of the study, the empirical findings highlight subtypes within each actor-type to define their strategies and methods of collusion, while underscoring institutional vulnerabilities and key areas for policy reform. |
