Micro-institutional Foundations of\u00a0Capitalism:\u00a0Sectoral Pathways to Globalization in China, India, and\u00a0Russia<\/em> <\/a>(Cambridge University Press, June 2022)<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

What is the relationship between internal development and integration into the global economy in developing countries? How and why do state\u2013market relations differ? And do these differences matter in the post-cold war era of global conflict and cooperation? Departing from the conventional wisdom of developmental versus neoliberal state and national versus subnational variation in globalization trajectories, Micro-institutional Foundations of Capitalism<\/a> <\/em>introduces a new model of globalization: \u201cnational configurations of sectoral models.”<\/p>\n

Adopting a historical and comparative approach and examining sectors from textiles to telecommunications in China, India, and Russia, the book\u2019s Strategic Value Framework illuminates the intersubjective and value-bounded rationality of state elites as they respond to internal and external pressures and the impacts of sectoral structures and organization of institutions. Bridging materialist arguments with constructivism and historical institutionalism, the book assesses the role of regime type and open economy politics in today\u2019s globalization backlash.<\/p>\n

Importantly, the book introduces a conceptual map and taxonomy of market governance, identifying intersecting dimensions of level and scope of the role of the state in market coordination and property rights arrangements.\u00a0The resultant dominant patterns of market governance vary by country and sector within country. These national configurations of sectoral models are the micro-institutional foundations of capitalism, which mediate globalization and development.<\/p>\n

The book\u2019s multilevel comparative case research design (time [historical and 1990-2022], country, sector, and subsector) draws from immersive fieldwork, leverages attention to context specificity and a variety of qualitative and quantitative data, and extends Roselyn Hsueh<\/a>\u2019s comparative work on the politics of market reform and China\u2019s regulatory state. Completed during the global pandemic, this important new book sheds light on the national sector-specific character of capitalistic development for the future of global conflict and cooperation.<\/p>\n
