Zusammenfassung:
This article examines the multiple forms of capitalist order which have emerged globally. In contrast to attempts to ascribe this variation to functional complementarities and political institutions, it treats globally diverging structures of state authority as the defining factor. Drawing on Michael Mann’s state-theoretical approach, it elaborates an authority- centred typology of capitalist sub-types that is able to appropriately encompass global differences.
