Varieties of markets (VOM): China ’s patterns of interaction with the global commodity markets of potash, iron ore and uranium

多元化市场：中国与全球商品市场的政治经济学——以钾肥、铁矿石和铀矿为例

文章摘要：

We stand at an interesting juncture, where rising economies such as India , China , and Brazil are starting to play increasingly systemically significant roles in the global economy. This presents us with an opportunity to investigate exactly how a systemically significant emerging state such as China impacts existing global market institutions. I do so through a study of the different patterns of interaction between China and the global commodity markets of potash, iron ore and uranium. Why has China developed different patterns of interactions with global commodity markets otherwise sharing important structural features? How can we theorize about the differential impacts a country such as China can have on the dynamic and institutional arrangements of different global commodity markets? I argue that the variation in Chinese engagement patterns towards distinct global markets is the result of a combination of system-level and domestic-level institutional setups. My work draws on the Varieties of Capitalisms literature, as I approach global commodity markets as distinct institutional systems, albeit ones that transcend national borders.
