Gul Berna Ozcan, BUILDING STATES AND MARKETS: Enterprise Developments In Central Asia

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: In contemporary Central Asian research, the text Building States And Markets: Enterprise Developments In Central Asia (2010), written by Gul Berna Ozcan, is a useful addition. As a Reader in International Business and Strategy, Ozcan combines knowledge from the business sector with a detailed examination of the developing region of Central Asia. In doing so, the author explains how and why Western capitalist-influenced business practices function in the way they do across the region. Many texts on Central Asia analyse nation-state-building. Ozcan’s work is unique because she introduces market-building into the discourse. In particular, her book touches upon an important but neglected theme in Central Asia studies since 1991: business practices and morality in contemporary Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.
