Cambridge University Press Fractured China
Book SynopsisIs China''s rise a threat to international order? Fractured China shows that it depends on what one means by ''China'', for China is not the monolithic, unitary actor that many assume. Forty years of state transformation the fragmentation, decentralisation and internationalisation of party-state apparatuses have profoundly changed how its foreign policy is made and implemented. Today, Chinese behaviour abroad is often not the product of a coherent grand strategy, but results from a sometimes-chaotic struggle for power and resources among contending politico-business interests, within a surprisingly permissive Chinese-style regulatory state. Presenting a path-breaking new analytical framework, Fractured China transforms the central debate in International Relations and provides new tools for scholars and policymakers seeking to understand and respond to twenty-first century rising powers. Drawing on extensive fieldwork in China and Southeast Asia, it includes three major case studies Trade Review'This exemplary work provides fabulous analyses on China's behaviours in international security and financial engagements. It should be a must-read for anyone who wants to gain more insights into the inner workings of China's foreign policy making and the impacts on China's partners and rivals.' Li Mingjiang, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore'This book is a long overdue and convincing corrective to recent studies of China's rise that assume a coherent grand design by an all-powerful Chinese state, which would inevitably lead it to the trap of conflict or the temptation of world domination, or both. The reality, as Fractured China argues, is that China is no unitary actor and messy politics and competing domestic interests shape its foreign policy behaviour, whether in the long or short term. And outstanding book.' Amitav Acharya, American University, Washington DC, and Author of The End of American World Order (2018)'In this provocative new book, Jones and Hameiri break open the black box of the state to understand China's foreign policy in both traditional and nontraditional spheres. Building on the idea of China as a regulatory state – which highlights the fragmentation and decentralization of relevant actors – they show that the policymaking process is much more complex than commonly believed.' M. Taylor Fravel, Arthur and Ruth Sloan Professor of Political Science, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)'… a must-read contribution to the study of how China's domestic politics affect its foreign policy… This is not only an important academic contribution but also closely relevant to contemporary debates on China's attitudes towards the current international order… Jones and Hameiri deserve high praise for their innovative theoretical framework… Fractured China also has significant policy implications, and deserves careful reading by all those interested in Chinese foreign policies.'

Cambridge University Press The Informal Regulation of Criminal Markets in
Book SynopsisThis book explains how states informally regulate drug markets in Latin America. It shows how and why state actors, specifically police and politicians, confront, negotiate with, or protect drug dealers to extract illicit rents or prevent criminal violence. The book highlights how, in countries with weak institutions, police act as interlocutors between criminals and politicians. It shows that whether and how politicians control their police forces explains the prevalence of different informal regulatory arrangements to control drug markets. Using detailed case studies built on 180 interviews in four cities in Argentina and Brazil, the book reconstructs how these informal regulatory arrangements emerged and changed over time.Trade Review'We long suspected that state actors in Argentina and Brazil were deeply involved in illicit narcotics markets and that this involvement was producing the interpersonal violence that periodically shakes these countries. But we didn't know how state intervention, drug trafficking, and violence intersect and interact. This book systematically dissects this relation and offers a novel and insightful perspective to understand and explain one of the most intractable issues in contemporary Latin America. Superbly written and brilliantly argued, the plethora of scholarly and policy lessons packed in this book will make it an unavoidable reference in the study of contemporary Latin America.' Javier Auyero, Joe R. and Teresa Lozano Long Professor in Latin American Sociology, University of Texas-Austin, author of The Ambivalent State: Police-Criminal Collusion at the Urban Margins'When and how do illicit markets come to be jointly governed by states and organized crime? Hernán Flom unpacks how relations between politicians, police, and criminals generate informal regulatory arrangements that shape state and criminal violence associated with drug markets in Latin America. Insightful theorization and rich empirics make this book an important contribution to the growing research on the politics of crime.' Eduardo Moncada, Assistant Professor of Political Science, Barnard College, Columbia University and author of Resisting Extortion: Victims, Criminals, and States in Latin America (Cambridge University Press, 2021)'This path-breaking book explains how politics in weakly institutionalized democracies shape the ways in which state authorities and the police informally regulate illicit drug markets. Theoretically insightful and empirically rich, Flom's study of four metropolitan areas in Argentina and Brazil masterfully weaves the voices of hundreds of cops and politicians into a cogent explanation of the different uses of violence and corruption to govern illicit markets in the Global South. The book is essential reading for students of governance, regulation, illicit economies, crime, and the police.' Guillermo Trejo, Professor of Political Science, University of Notre Dame'Hernán Flom studies rigorously the relationship between elected politicians and police to explain diverse informal regulatory regimes of drug markets in Argentina and Brazil. This book contributes to theorizing the multiple, and often unexpected, ways in which states interact with drug markets, not only repressing them or enforcing the law, but also tolerating, preying upon, or protecting them. His focus on the police as a pivotal actor expands our knowledge of the intricate dynamics that connect states and criminal markets. The book is an important addition to the literature on criminal violence, drug markets, and policing.'
