School of varieties of capitalism and Economic development in the 21 st century

Article Summary by: twinky17    

Original Author: twinky 17
It is an admissible
fact that the capitalism system is in a dominant position and is leading the world
economy.
Its tentacles do not spare any nation, not even various aspects of people’s
life due to the universal claim attached to its theoretical basis which is  reinforced by the articulation and the imposition
of an unitary and righteous vision.  Observational studies lead many theorists
nonetheless to recognize that institutional frameworks of countries can cause
the fraction of the system and that the idea of a transcendental model to which
every country should converge does not stand in front of the role played by
nationally anchored institutions that define a nation.  In taking into account  the particularities of institutional traditions
the capitalist system has the capability of harboring divergent currents in the
absence of any notable contradiction. Assuming that they are not considered
through political ideology’s lenses,  the
authors underline that one will not have per se any superiority over the
other.  With the help of a
multidisciplinary approach the varieties of capitalism school underline the
role and the importance, the interrelations and the functioning of various
institutions in a country. It means that  the conception of fairness and justice  the structure of state and its policies and a
society’s idiosyncratic customs and traditions as well as norms, moral
principles, rules laws, and recipes  for
action  help define the economic system
of a country. As such it is interesting to see how the different traditional institutions
have   shaped the economic  situation of  a country.   The article
refers to the importance of accepting the economic development process   of a
country . It shows that the capitalism system is flexible enough to adapt to different
traditions, cultures but in order to be successful it has to  work in accordance with the  institutions of the country not in accordance
to  imposed standard  set of rules
