Reviews

a valuable contribution to scholarship ... Triner's work shows how accounting for institutional change and interaction can add to our understanding of key industries.' -- Amanda Hartzmark EH.net


'ask(s) important questions about the role of the state in Brazil's industrialization and presents diligent research on the impact of the changing legal environment.' American Historical Review 'well written and free of jargon. It skillfully engages theory, reconciles it with practice, and uses both to show just how complicated and contingent the economic development process is.' Business History Review 'a valuable contribution to scholarship ... Triner's work shows how accounting for institutional change and interaction can add to our understanding of key industries.' -- Amanda Hartzmark EH.net
