“…Both Peng and Wank, who extend Walder's ideas directly, make many of the same assumptions contained in Walder's original work (Peng 2001;Wank 1999). Similar approaches that synthesize ideas from each perspective tend to retain the behavioral assumptions contained in the original theories (RonaTas 1994;Zhou 2000a).…”

Large-scale changes in the global political and economic landscape have led to the proliferation of transition economies in recent decades. Market transition is the movement of an economy from state socialism toward market coordination of economic activity. In a redistributive state socialist economy, government officials collect and re-allocate goods according to a central plan. In a market economy, buyers and sellers bargain directly over price. The transformation of socialism into some form of a market economy realigns the interests of economic and political actors, introduces new actors such as private and hybrid firms, transforms labor relations, creates unique opportunities for economic participation and achievement, alters the personal characteristics and social relations that are recognized and rewarded, and otherwise changes incentives and reward structures. As a result, market transition alters the nature of social and economic behavior in a country often quite dramatically and rapidly.

“…El sector público se mantiene, pero las autoridades locales tienen muchos incentivos para facilitar el surgimiento de nuevos empresarios, quienes son la fuente de una mayor riqueza y, por consiguiente, de una base impositiva más importante que, en última instancia, aumenta los recursos disponibles para el gasto público. La hipótesis del corporativismo local provee una definición precisa de esta forma de hibridación (Oi, 1992;Peng, 2001). En cierto sentido, esta cooperación entre la clase políti-ca y los empresarios es el resultado lógico de la adecuación de sus respectivos objetivos: por un lado, recaudar la máxima cantidad posible de impuestos y, por el otro, mejorar la ventaja competitiva de cada localidad a través de dinamizar la inversión, la producción y el empleo (Krug y Hendrischke, 2007).…”

ResumenEl auge de los países asiáticos tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial se convirtió en un reto para la economía como disciplina y para las ciencias sociales en general. La trayectoria de Japón muestra que la tentativa de imitar el modelo de producción estadounidense se tropezó con las especificidades locales, lo cual desencadenó un proceso de hibridación que resultó en una forma original de capitalismo. El éxito mismo del "modelo japonés" desembocó en una crisis mayor, que anticipaba tanto la de 1997 en Asia, como la crisis estadounidense, y después mundial, de 2008. De hecho, los países asiáticos han desarrollado al menos cuatro formas diferentes de capitalismo, de modo que proximidad geográ-fica no implica identidad, como lo confirma la crisis del euro iniciada en 2010. China ocupa un lugar especial, pues la intensa competencia entre una miríada de corporativismos locales condujo a un modo de desarrollo que debe compensar, con un excedente comercial, el desequilibrio entre la demanda interna y la capacidad de producción. Se esboza una geopolítica inspirada en la teoría de la regulación que vuelve a colocar a China en el centro de las relaciones internacionales, sin que postule que vaya a sustituir a la superpotencia estadounidense, en decadencia. Asia se ha convertido en el laboratorio donde emergen nuevas formas de capitalismo y teorías originales.

AbstractThe upswing of Asian countries after the Second World War became a challenge for the discipline of Economy and for the Social Sciences in general. Japan's trajectory shows that the attempt of imitating the North American production model tripped on local specificities which triggered a hybridization process and an original form of capitalism. The very success of the "Japanese model" resulted on a major crisis, which anticipated the crisis of 1997 in Asia, as well as the North American and, afterwards, global crisis of 2008. In fact, Asian countries have developed at least four different forms of capitalism, but their geographical proximity does not imply the oneness of that forms, as it was demonstrated by the Euro crisis which started in 2010. China has a special place since the intense competition amongst a myriad of local corporations led to a form of development that had to compensate, through commercial spillover, the unbalance between the domestic demand and the production capacity. This article outlines a geopolitics inspired on regulation theory, and places China again at the center of international relations without meaning that it is destined to substitute the North American superpower, now in decay. Asia has become in the laboratory from which new forms of capitalism and original theories emerge.
