wang78@indiana.edu Curriculum Vitae
My dissertation, entitled “Central State Monopoly, Local State Competition, and Global Market Engagement: Market-Building as State-Building in China’s Tobacco Industry,” examines China’s economic transition and current state-market relationships with regard to the reforms of state-owned industries over the last 28 years. This study explains two puzzles: first, why China’s tobacco industry – a sector that is supposedly controlled by a central planning system – has been “monopolized” by local governments during China’s Reform era; and second, why this particular state-owned industry has boomed in some regions based not on privatization but on the strategies of horizontal combination and vertical integration erected by the local firms. The central thesis is that the state bureaucracies governing China’s tobacco industry have strengthened themselves by involving themselves in the market-building projects. My research article from this project has appeared in the European Journal of Sociology. During my fellowship at the RCCPB, I will continue my research regarding the interaction between China’s political system and business organizations with China’s increasing engagement into the global market.
