Rethinking globalization and business politics -- Globalization and integration in international apparel manufacturing networks : the new politics of industrial development -- Business and the state in Tunisia : statist development, capital dispersion, and preemptive integration in world markets -- Business and the state in Morocco : business penetration of the state and the genesis of the "fat cat" -- Business as usual : state-sponsored industrialization and business collective inaction in Tunisia -- Fat cats and self-made men : class conflict and business collective action in Morocco -- Globalization, business politics, and industrial policy in developing countries.

Can production for global markets help business groups to mobilize collectively? Under what conditions does globalization enable the private sector to develop independent organizational bases and create effective relationships with the state? Focusing on varied Moroccan and Tunisian responses to trade liberalization in the 1990s, Melani Cammett argues that two constitutive dimensions of business-government relations shape business responses to global economic opening: the balance of power between business and the state before economic opening and the preexisting business class structure. These two dimensions combine to form different configurations of business-government relations, including 'distant' and 'close' linkages, leading to divergent interests and, hence, strategic behavior by industrialists. The book also extends the analysis to additional country cases, including India, Turkey, and Taiwan, and examines how different patterns of business-government relations affect processes of industrial upgrading.
