Are American and European companies returning back from China?

Abstract

China has been the destination country for many international companies investments. Economy keeps very competitive and many investments are coming yet to China, where production costs are low. Chinese economic power and its capability to penetrate in international markets made China a very consistent and influent economic country. However, many companies are coming back from China because they consider that the reduced costs (principally wages) are not anymore as attractive as before. An analysis of this new international scenario is made in this paper as much as a perspective for the future and the implications for companies.
