Political Economy of Business Development

By: Kristin E. Fabbe
    ShareBar

    Description

    In an ongoing research stream, Professor Fabbe is studying the political economy of business development in fragile societies. Her newest project in this research stream explores the opportunities for complementarities and joint ventures between Syrian and Turkish businesses in Gaziantep, Turkey. In addition, building on extensive interviews with women business owners and a large-scale survey of female-owned businesses in Northern Iraq, another study assesses how women leverage social, political, and economic resources to launch businesses despite the absence of state-directed credit or a well-defined system of individual property rights.
