Dobbin, Frank. Forging Industrial Policy: The United States, Britain, and France in the Railway Age. Cambridge; New York: Cambridge University Press, 1994. Table of contents
Abstract
Reviews
Excerpt
'The argument of the book is compelling and innovative. That one can argue for a cultural source of the social construction of political order is surprising and bold. Dobin marshals his evidence in a convincing fashion that will appeal to historians as well as sociologists.’
             Robert L. Frost, State University of New York, Albany

‘A bold and creative analysis of the role of political institutions and political culture in shaping distinctive national patterns of government intervention and industrial development. This book represents an important contribution to our understanding of comparative business-government relations.’
             David Vogel, University of California, Berkeley

‘… an excellent example of cultural analysis applied to economic policy, which challenges those who emphasise power and economic rationality as sources of national economic behaviour. Documenting the fact that railroad development policies varies sharply in France, Germany and the United States, he related these differences to national cultural characteristics. This book will be widely read and discussed.’
             Seymour Martin Lipset, George Mason University
