Growth models and social blocs: Taking Gramsci seriously
While the recent extension of the Growth Models perspective to advanced peripheral economies is a laudable endeavor, we argue that the utilization of the social bloc concept needs conceptual refining. We contribute to this debate by drawing explicitly on the writings of Antonio Gramsci. First, we demonstrate that Gramsci differentiated between different forms of state-society complexes in peripheral countries vis-à-vis Western core countries. Fro…
Sustainable energy experiments and demonstrations: Reviewing research, market and societal trends
Research into the impact of innovative sustainable energy experiments and demonstrations is crucial to diversifying, scaling up, and accelerating the sustainable energy transition. Although there is vast research into sustainable energy experiments and demonstrations, research literature offers a fragmented collection of findings. A coherent overview of themes and insights regarding the transformative impact of innovative sustainable energy exper…

Comparative Capitalism, Growth Models and Emerging Markets: The Development of the Field
Over the past decade, the study of emerging markets has become one of the most vibrant fields of Comparative Capitalism (CC) scholarship. CC studies have not only mapped a range of different emerging market capitalisms but have also identified both functional and dysfunctional types that further differ based on their integration into the global economy. The article reviews the evolution of these ideal-typological efforts, ranging from the notion …
Public-private coordination in large emerging economies: The case of Brazil, India and China
Different modes of economic coordination constitute a key aspect of the Comparative Capitalisms research framework. With regard to emerging economies, the close relationship between the state and business has been perceived negatively as an instance of corruption and patrimonialism that are considered to be economically harmful. This paper addresses the puzzle why some large emerging economies – China, India, and Brazil in particular – have seen …

Critical Institutionalism in Studies of Comparative Capitalisms: Conceptual Considerations and Research Programme
Despite the criticisms to which institutionalist approaches in Comparative Capitalisms research (CC) have been exposed in recent years (see Coates and Bruff et al., in this volume), it would be unfortunate, in our view, to discard them altogether for the comparative analysis of capitalism. Instead of ‘throwing out the baby with the bathwater’, we suggest that building upon established concepts within institutional research and further developing …
Fault and Fracture? The Impact of New Directions in Comparative Capitalisms Research on the Wider Field
As David Coates notes in the previous chapter, we are currently in a paradoxical period. Peter Hall and David Soskice’s (2001) Varieties of Capitalism (VoC) approach dominated the Comparative Capitalisms (CC) landscape for at least a decade after its 2001 publication, but is clearly the product of a period in time which is now in the past. Nevertheless, the earlier dominance may well ensure that it is even more widely cited in the coming years. I…
New Directions in Comparative Capitalisms Research: Critical and Global Perspectives
Now that the 'Varieties of Capitalism' hype has passed, students of capitalist diversity are searching for new directions. This book presents the first sustained dialogue between institutionalist 'pos

Domestic structures, foreign economic policies and global economic order: Implications from the rise of large emerging economies
The rise of the large emerging economies of Brazil, India and China can easily be counted among the most important contemporary structural changes in the global political economy. This article attempts to determine whether these countries have a common institutional model for governing their economies and addresses the implications of these commonalities for global economic institutions. The approach consists of three major steps: first, a genera…
