Why was the rise of capitalism in Germany and Japan associated
not with liberal institutions and democratic politics, but rather
with statist controls and authoritarian rule? A stellar group of
international scholars addresses this classic issue in political
development. In The Origins of Nonliberal Capitalism, German
sociologists and American and Japanese political scientists draw
extensively on the work of economists and historians from their
home countries, as well as from the United Kingdom and France.
The contributors discuss the potential disappearance, evolution,
and reconstitution of nonliberal capitalism in Germany and Japan by
analyzing its historical origins from two perspectives: the
emergence and survival of nonliberal capitalism, and the causes of
differences between the systems of Germany and Japan. They also
outline the requirements for internally coherent national models of
an embedded capitalist economy. The histories of German and
Japanese capitalism demonstrate that capitalism's structural forms
and functional relations evolve by means of different processes
with different goals.
