| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research project has carried out a systematic political economy study of currency internationalization, focusing on the case of the Chinese renminbi. It has several significant findings with regard to both the domestic and the international politics surrounding renminbi internationalization. As to the domestic politics, this research project has examined the issues of who has been in the driving seat promoting internationalization of the renminbi, why this actor has been pushing it, and how it has managed to acquire support from other domestic actors. With regard to the international politics, this research project has addressed how foreign actors have coped with renminbi internationalization, through in-depth qualitative analysis focusing largely on major countries - including the United States, Japan, the United Kingdom and South Korea - as well as quantitative cross-country research. The research outcomes have been published in major journals in international political economy.
