“…Um conceito importante subjacente a essa abordagem é o de complementaridade institucional, segundo o qual uma instituição aumenta seu desempenho na presença de outra, ainda que isso não leve necessariamente a um equilíbrio ótimo. Outro conceito relevante é o de path dependence (dependência da trajetória), que associa características institucionais de hoje a decisões tomadas em conjunturas críticas do passado, decisões que sofrem mudanças graduais e condicionadas pelo tempo (Hall & Soskice 2001;Jackson & Deeg 2006). Cada país possui combinações institucionais próprias, e identificam-se dois tipos básicos de capitalismo: economias liberais de mercado, cujos representantes mais destacados são Estados Unidos e Reino Unido, e economias coordenadas de mercado, cujos principais exemplos são Alemanha e Japão.…”

RESUMOO artigo analisa a economia política do processo de internacionalização de empresas privadas brasileiras ocorrido durante o governo Lula (2003Lula ( -2010. A partir de 2005, verificou-se uma expansão do investimento direto brasileiro no exterior, resultado de uma política do governo federal destinada a formar grandes empresas transnacionais capazes de concorrer internacionalmente. Grandes fusões, aquisições e projetos de investimentos no exterior foram financiados por recursos públicos, no âmbito da política industrial operada pelo Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social (BNDES), principal banco estatal de fomento ao setor privado no país.Uma característica importante desse movimento foi a concentração em setores nos quais o Brasil já é competitivo, como os intensivos em trabalho e recursos naturais, em contradição com diretrizes originalmente estabelecidas pela própria política industrial do governo Lula, que preconizava o incentivo a indústrias mais intensivas em tecnologia. A partir da análise empírica de casos de internacionalização, argumenta-se que isso ocorreu porque a política pautou-se por demandas de curto prazo de grupos econômicos privados. Utilizando a abordagem institucional das "variedades de capitalismo", conclui-se que a ação do BNDES foi path dependent, no sentido de que dependeu de projetos de viabilidade imediata. Depreende-se do resultado que características institucionais mais gerais da economia brasileira deixam a política industrial do governo federal sujeitas a demandas de curto prazo do setor privado.

La sociedad moderna: una sociedad capitalista funcionalmente diferenciada

ResumenEl presente artículo presenta la idea teórica relativa a que la sociedad moderna puede ser concebida como una sociedad capitalista sin contradecir su caracterización como sociedad funcionalmente diferenciada. Propondremos para ello un modelo analítico de una sociedad capitalista basado en tres componentes. El primero de ellos refiere a estructuras y dinámicas intersistémicas mediadas por el dinero, las cuales son específicas de las relaciones entre la economía moderna y otros subsistemas sociales. El segundo componente identifica a los mercados como estructuras de gobernanza intrasistémicas que poseen dinámicas peculiares, las cuales no pueden ser encontradas en otros subsistemas de la sociedad moderna. Ambos componentes están íntimamente ligados: sólo debido a que los sucesos intrasistémicos de la economía irradian profundas repercusiones intersistémicas hacia los otros subsistemas sociales, es posible hablar de una sociedad capitalista producida por una economía capitalista. Estos dos componentes se encuentran acompañados por un tercero: dado que vivimos en una sociedad capitalista, ésta moldea nuestras acciones como un patrón cultural general de orientación y se convierte, de esta manera, en una profecía autocumplida.Palabras Clave: Diferenciación Funcional; Capitalismo; Sociedad Moderna; Economía;Teoría de Sistemas Sociales AbstractThis contribution presents the theoretical idea that modern society can be conceived of as a capitalist society without contradiction to its characterization as functionally differentiated. A three-component analytical model of capitalist society is proposed. The first component refers to inter-systemic structures and dynamics mediated by money which are peculiar to the relations of the modern economy to the other societal sub-systems. The second component identifies markets as intra-systemic governance structures of the economy with peculiar dynamics that cannot be found in other sub-systems of modern society. Both components are interrelated: Only because the intra-systemic structures and dynamics of the economy have profound inter-systemic repercussions in all other sub-systems, one can speak of a capitalist society brought about by a capitalist economy. These two components are accompanied by a third one: that we live in a capitalist society shapes, as a general cultural pattern of orientation, our actions and thereby becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

“…In fact, economies are institutional production systems (Hollingsworth and Boyer, 1997), which means that the pillars on which the workings of each of its particular forms rest (the financial system, the prevalent mode of corporate governance, business to business relations, industrial relations, the education and training systems, the organization of work, the state, or the innovation systems) take on certain particularities that extend to the relationships between them (Jackson and Deeg, 2006). Hence the notion that the roads to development require that the appropriate institutional arrangements be chosen (Rodrik, 2008).…”

The State and the Market: An Institutionalist and Relational Take*

*State-market relations call for a holistic view of the relationship between the material and relational dynamics of society, on the one hand, and between these dynamics and institutional dynamics on the other. As the institution-of-institutions, the state contains mechanisms that are essential to the existence of markets themselves, and these mechanisms are not "natural" givens. It is therefore a mistake to conceive of the state, the market and society as opposing entities. One should turn instead to the institutionalist perspective, which draws from Polanyi, in order to offer a political approach to the state and the market. Economies are actually institutional production systems wherein the material density of the state both as organization and administration is of relevance. The institutionalist perspective thus needs to be fine-tuned in order to show that the state is more than a political-legal entity. That is one of the main goals of the present article.Keywords: state; political economy; institutionalism; institutions; market; state-market relation. I venture to think that modern economic life is seen much more clearly when [there is an] effort to see it whole.John Kenneth Galbraith, The New Industrial State (1967: 7) IntroductionWhen, in The Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759), Adam Smith speaks of the conditions under which we approve of the actions of others, he alludes to certain moral attributes, such as sympathy and solidarity, that are inherent in the consenting subject. But he also points out that the actions deserving moral approbation must be in accordance with "general rules"and with "a system of behaviour which tends to promote the happiness either of the individual or of the society." Then Smith goes on to explain that in that case what we have before us is "a beauty […] not unlike that which we ascribe to any well-contrived machine" (Smith, 2011: 291).We can say then that our relationship with others involves both our subjective motives (let us call them our identity) and circumstances resulting from those principles that transcend us as individuals (we will call them alterity).

RCCS Annual Review, 4, October 2012The That is why I will adhere to the notion that there are problems that call for a holistic view, truly a whole philosophy of collective life that may serve as a frame of reference for understanding and bringing together processes of a diverse nature, which may prove hard to consider in a segmented fashion. Of course this is only to be expected when one is dealing with the state, given that the latter is essentially a political entity and given also that, for that same reason, it expresses in the broadest terms society's organization and historical course.In fact, in order to understand the state's underlying matrix we need...
