The changing patterns of China’s international standardization in ICT under techno-nationalism: A reflection through 5G standardization

作者:

Highlights:

• The U.S.-China dispute on 5G necessitates it to reexamine China’s approaches to international standardization in ICT.

• China’s three major efforts for ICT standardization (WAPI, TD-SCDMA and 5G) are all under techno-nationalism.

• China will pursue IPR-based standardization in emerging technologies as it moves from ‘catch-up’ to ‘first-mover’ strategy.
