Dear friends and colleagues, Please join us for the conference on State Capitalism and the Firm on August 11 at Northeastern University. This is open to all. Please register at: https://damore-mckim.northeastern.edu/events/state-capitalism-and-the-firm-conference/ Best wishes, Alvaro State Capitalism and the Firm Sunday, 11th August 2019, 08:30-19:00 Northeastern University, Raytheon Amphitheater at the Egan Research Center 120 Forsyth St, Boston, MA 02115 This mini-conference organized by Northeastern University, Loughborough University London, and Brandeis University, brings together scholars from a variety of academic disciplines to explore how state capitalism works today. It will examine new forms of state capitalism that often cross the boundaries that traditionally separated state enterprises and private businesses. This separation was reflected in prior research focused on the antecedents and consequences of nationalization and privatization of companies. However, the distinction between state and private, between political logic and market logic becomes blurry when we consider some of the companies that raised to prominence during the last 10-20 years. Such hybrid organizations can be found all over the world, but they play a particularly prominent role in emerging economies. During this mini-conference, topics will be addressed, such as the internationalization of state-owned firms, state-owned business groups, investment strategies of sovereign wealth funds, the effect of state ownership on innovation patterns, and several others.
