Declining or Waning

The application of classical management theories appears to be waning, as researchers increasingly seek to develop frameworks that are more context-specific to China, reflecting contemporary challenges and innovations. - Local versus Global Comparisons:
Research comparing local Chinese firms to their global counterparts is less frequent, indicating a potential shift towards more localized studies that focus on unique Chinese market conditions rather than comparative analyses. - Employee Relations and Labor Issues:

Previous research on family business management and its unique challenges in China has diminished, suggesting a shift in focus towards more contemporary business models and practices. - Market Entry Strategies:
