  1. Industrial Policy in the United States: A Neo-Polanyian Interpretation.Josh Whitford & Andrew Schrank - 2009 - Politics and Society 37 (4):521-553.
    The conventional wisdom holds that U.S. political institutions are inhospitable to industrial policy. The authors call the conventional wisdom into question by making four claims: the activities targeted by industrial policy are increasingly governed by decentralized production networks rather than markets or hierarchies, “network failures” are therefore no less threatening to industrial dynamism than market or organizational failures, the spatial and organizational decentralization of production have simultaneously increased the demand and broadened the support for American industrial policy, and political decentralization (...)

  • Developmental Environmentalism: Explaining South Korea’s Ambitious Pursuit of Green Growth.Elizabeth Thurbon & Sung-Young Kim - 2015 - Politics and Society 43 (2):213-240.
    Why, after fifty years of fossil fuelled “brown growth” and steadfast refusal to join international agreements on carbon reduction did South Korea prioritize “green growth” as an overarching national initiative in 2008? Our principal aim is to explain Korea’s ambitious pursuit of GG since that time. We argue that Korean-style environmentalism is best understood as an extension of the long-held philosophy of developmentalism amongst the policy-making elite. We first examine the origins and specify the central tenets of this new philosophy (...)

  • The Politics of Innovation Policy: Building Israel’s “Neo-developmental” State.Erez Maggor - 2021 - Politics and Society 49 (4):451-487.
    This article contributes to an emerging literature on the “neo” or “entrepreneurial” developmental state that emphasizes the role of innovation policy in promoting the structural transformation of industry. It finds further evidence that supports this approach and advances it by making two unique contributions. First, it highlights an essential yet underappreciated feature of contemporary innovation policy: the state’s capacity to condition public assistance and discipline private firms that do not adhere to government guidelines. These capacities are necessary to guarantee that (...)

  • The Food-Energy-Climate Change Trilemma: Toward a Socio-Economic Analysis.Mark Harvey - 2014 - Theory, Culture and Society 31 (5):155-182.
    The food-energy-climate change trilemma refers to the stark alternatives presented by the need to feed a world population growing to nine billion, the attendant risks of land conversion and use for global climate change, and the way these are interconnected with the energy crisis arising from the depletion of oil. Theorizing the interactions between political economies and their related natural environments, in terms of both finitudes of resources and generation of greenhouse gases, presents a major challenge to social sciences. Approaches (...)

  • Not Just Neoliberalism: Economization in US Science and Technology Policy.Elizabeth Popp Berman - 2014 - Science, Technology, and Human Values 39 (3):397-431.
    Recent scholarship in science, technology, and society has emphasized the neoliberal character of science today. This article draws on the history of US science and technology policy to argue against thinking of recent changes in science as fundamentally neoliberal, and for thinking of them instead as reflecting a process of “economization.” The policies that changed the organization of science in the United States included some that intervened in markets and others that expanded their reach, and were promoted by some groups (...)

  • Building the Problem-Solving State: Bridging Networks and Experiments in the US Advisory Specialist Group in World War II.Gerald Berk - 2018 - Politics and Society 46 (2):265-294.
    Hidden within the office of the Secretary of War during World War II was a little-known agency called the Advisory Specialist Group. Strategically located between the laboratory, the factory, the battlefield, and civilian bureaucracy, the ASG solved the complex problem of reconciling new technologies and new military operations. In doing so, it combined incongruous domains of activity, contributed to Allied victory, and opened a channel to the problem-solving state. It is easy to overlook or misunderstand the ASG, because it was (...)
