• Sommario/riassunto: When are developing countries able to initiate periods of rapid growth and why have so few been able to sustain growth over decades? This work provides a novel conceptual framework built from a political economy of business-government relations and applies it to nine countries across Africa and Asia, drawing actionable policy recommendations.
