Abstract

The policy of reforms and openness as a program of economic reforms has trig-gered rapid development of Chinese economy. Russian researchers have attempted to study Chinese corporate and organizational culture; however, these studies relied on the Western and Russian theories. The peculiarities of Chinese corporate and organizational culture that resulted in the «Chinese miracle» have remained a challenge. Our research is primarily targeted at the peculiarities of Chinese theoretical concepts of corporate and organizational culture. The research material included monographs and textbooks of Chinese authors on corporate and organizational culture. Our research has relied on the informational approach, cross-cultural and hermeneutic methods. Based on contextual analysis, the authors have come to the following conclusions. Chinese authors differentiate between industrial enterprises and organizations thus defining the two phenomena: corporate culture and organizational culture respectively. Chinese authors also see differences in the concepts of corporate culture developed in the business community and in the academic circles. Chinese authors strongly believe in the objective nature of corporate culture, its determination by the external culture as a form of social reality.  According to Chinese authors, the Chinese national culture is a source of its corporate culture. A spiritual (level) layer of corporate culture is instru-mental in the whole system of corporate culture. The Chinese national culture is a basic source of spiritual culture in China, which is an «external» culture in relation to the corporate culture. A spiritual culture is in essence a sum of corporate ideology. A system ic approach used in Chinese concepts allows Chinese authors to talk about institutionalization of corporate culture. Institution-alization is impossible without a proper social demand. Institutionalization and stability of corporate culture requires specific conditions. They are all represented in the Chinese concepts of corporate culture.
