Title: RETHINKING THE DEVELOPMENTAL STATE
Description: "Rethinking the Developmental State charts a promising new direction in political economy by detailing case studies of the relations between the state and industry. This book examines why the same state has intervened in three industries to wildly disparate levels of success. In India, the software industry has been a runaway success, the automobile industry has been moderately successful, and the steel industry has simply failed.

Existing arguments about the developmental state primarily examine how a developmental state acts, not why it acts the way it does. Vibha Pingle presents an argument about the kind of business-government relations that make a state willing and able to act in a manner beneficial to development, and what effect the differences in relations between bureaucrats and entrepreneurs have on emerging industries."--BOOK JACKET.
