Abstract/Summary

Sino-Japanese trade relations has been going on for more than 2000 years and with the advent of globalization and the normalization of trade and investment relations, China and Japan can be seen as moving towards the idea of being economically interdependent. With this concept in mind, the author wanted to determine the level of their economic interdependence based on their production networks from 1980 to 2005. The author then formulated specific questions that would help her grasp the answers to the problem stated above. These questions deal with the sectors of the Japanese economy that is dependent on China, the structure of Japanese FDI, Japanese production networks in China (purpose, local content, production system), the connection between production networks and economic interdependence, and the government responses on increased economic interdependence. The author would then utilize the use of documentary analysis and case studies for analyzing the data gathered from government sources of both countries, other official agencies and books and journals found in De La Salle University's library and through online subscriptions.
