In an increasingly multipolar but ‘glocalised’ world, a country's scientific and technological know-how determines its socioeconomic position and strategic disposition, especially related to science, technology and innovation (STI).

This has accelerated and transformed the emergence of ‘variegated forms of capitalism’ in PRC.
