China's Iron Ore Boom

This book investigates how the rapid growth in Chinäs iron ore demand has impacted the organisation and structure of the global iron ore market. It develops a framework to show how Chinese state support for iron ore procurement, and the short- and long-run effects of this support, have affected the competitiveness of market outcomes. The analysis provides a number of new findings, which contribute to the literature on the impact of Chinäs demand growth on the structure of the global iron ore market.
