Self-description: "Emerging Market Economies in Central Asia: The Role of Institutional Complementarities in Reform Processes. This three-year project aims at analyzing the institutional arrangements currently being developed and redefined in Central Asian economies. It expands the ÒVarieties of CapitalismÓ (VoC) research agenda to transition countries in Central Asia; notably Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and it is driven by the following goals: * to contribute in a comparative manner to a better understanding of political-economic developments in Central Asia; * to further the VoC research agenda by applying the approach to transition economies, notably to Central Asian economies; * to determine the influence of external actors in the transformation process in Central Asia and to develop relevant policy recommendations; * to elaborate the impact of distinct capitalist variations in Central Asia on economic performance - indicated by economic growth, income distribution, and socio-economic indicators."
