In my new article for @SCID__journal, I find that the scale of state-owned firm layoffs in the late 1990s drove the increase in social security tax of private firms in the 2000s. The need to appease potential collective action of highly organized SOE workers precipitated China's welfare state. link.springer.com/article/10…

Replying to @RajeshVeeraa
Great work merits the time necessary to do it right. We do our very best to get things through our pipeline as quickly as possible because our authors deserve that, and careers require it.

Thrilled about the publication of my article with Atul Pokharel. How the state dynamically implement plans using local info? It extends 'Governance by Patching' with a comparative case on the Supreme Court's role in clean air vehicle transitions. link.springer.com/article/10…
