Abstract

The term »state capitalism« has experienced a renaissance since the outbreak of the global financial and economic crisis in 2007. After the rise in importance of the Chinese economy in global financial relations led to special reports on the topic of state capitalism in the Economist (20.8.2008; 21.-27.1.2012) and the Financial Times (24.1.2008), the term is now widely received both in liberal leading media and in the critical economic and social sciences. The central question is: In view of the currently more visible role of the state in global capitalism, are we facing a new phase of »state capitalist« development? With the focus on »State Capitalism«, we want to further develop the concept theoretically and conceptually as well as counteract the currently open definition of the concept of state capitalism with empirical analyses of state capitalist manifestations in different regions of the world.
