 e Divergent Paths of Jinjiang’s and Putian’s Footwear Industries
DESCRIPTION:Held via Zoom - registration required: https://harvard.zoom.us/
 meeting/register/tJAucuCrrjIrGdSH7bY1muKmm7zFh9BeLvir\n\nJinjiang and Puti
 an are two prosperous industrial powerhouses in Fujian province in China w
 ith footwear industry being a pillar industry in both cities. While Jinjia
 ng is known as the “the Footwear Capital of China” with domestic brand
 s like Anta featured prominently in Olympic games\, Putian is internationa
 lly known as “the Capital of Footwear Knockoffs”. Built on a multiface
 ted framework of globalization\, institutions\, and path dependence\, this
  talk examines the processes and reasons why the footwear industries of th
 e two cities have taken such divergent paths. Implications of this case st
 udy for the evolution of China’s manufacturing industries will be discus
 sed.
