Guanxi and Entrepreneurship in Urban China

Michael Troilo and Jun Zhang

ABSTRACT

We test for the relative importance of guanxi (“connections”) as a catalyst for entrepreneurship in urban China using survey data from five cities for the period 1996-2001. We find that guanxi with the Chinese Communist Party (CPC) is negatively correlated with the likelihood of being either a sole proprietor or an entrepreneur with employees. Family guanxi has no effect for sole proprietors, but is positively correlated with the probability of being an entrepreneur with employees. These findings add to the literature on entrepreneurship in China by differentiating the effects of various types of guanxi on various forms of entrepreneurship.
