Join the Kellogg Institute in celebrating the launch of a new book by Kellogg Faculty Fellow Jazmín Sierra.
In Globalized State-led Development (Cambridge University Press, Studies in Comparative Politics series), Sierra examines how major developing countries have used state-backed finance to support the global expansion of national firms. Focusing on Brazil, with comparative analysis of China and India, she shows how development banks help governments shape business strategy, manage political conflict, and pursue industrial transformation in a globalized economy. The book challenges the view that globalization and democracy have ended ambitious industrial policy, showing instead how policymakers have adapted their strategies while continuing to seek structural economic change.
