Thisstudy uses institutional liberal guidance that draws conclusions and theories from theempirical data collected in the field.

The domestic legal system remains unclear, government oversight isinsufficient to make this case still continue to occur. China's inconsistent stance on anagreed treaty creates a new problem for the growing US-China relationship between thetwo countries. US lawsuits and allegations sent to the Chinese government for the theft oftechnology transfers prove that there is a desire of both countries to impose each other onbehalf of the national interest.
