Strong Intellectual Property and Weak Antitrust: How the End of Vertical Restraints Fissured the US Political Economy
What explains rising inequality after 1980? Explanations describing immediate causes, like skill-biased technological change, financialization, or globalization, assign causality to homogenous market forces and largely focus on distributional struggles between capital and labor. They thus ignore how distributional struggles among firms drove changes to industrial organization that are upstream of those explanations. We show how public and private…
Thinking about Thinking about Comparative Political Economy: From Macro to Micro and Back
How and why did comparative political economy (CPE) lose sight of the sources of growing macroeconomic and political instability, a problem that encompassed a growing financial bubble and then a crash in the housing market, a period of sluggish growth that plausibly constitutes secular stagnation, and a crisis of political legitimacy manifesting itself in the rise of antisystem 'populist' parties? A gradual shift in CPE's research agenda from mac…
Much Ventured, Much Gained: The US Innovation State
One of the enduring shibboleths of the industrial policy and the developmental state literatures that started in the 1970s is that the US state is “weak,” which literature parsed as “unable to effectively organize actors in the economy around a progressive policy of industrial up-grading and global competitiveness.” Even today, the US state’s role in the economy is backgrounded in the Varieties of Capitalism (Hall and Soskice 2001) literature, wh…
The political economy of currency internationalisation: The case of the RMB
The rise of China has sparked a debate about the economic and political consequences for the global economy of the internationalisation of the renminbi. We argue that the dominant focus of this literature – primarily the external conditions and requirements for a national currency to become an international currency – misspecifies the connections between the international and domestic requirements for currency internationalisation, as well as the…

No Exit: Social Reproduction in an Era of Rising Income Inequality
What explains the unexpected, uneven, but unquestionably pervasive trend toward re-familialization in the rich OECD countries? The usual arguments about political responses to rising income inequality, unstable families, and unstable employment predicted that the state would increasingly shelter people against risk, producing greater individuation and de- rather than re-familialization. By contrast, we argue three things. First, re-familializatio…
